The correct answer is: a) Dhol.

The dhol is a double-headed drum that is prominently used in Bihu performances. It is a large drum that is played with both hands. The dhol is made of wood and has a skin on each head. The skin is usually made of goat or cowhide. The dhol is played by striking the skin with the hands. The dhol is a very important part of Bihu music. It provides the rhythm for the dance and the singing. The dhol is also used to call people to the Bihu celebrations.
