== History and origin ==
The Langha and related Manganiar are both communities of folk musicians, and have two sub-divisions, the Sonia Langha and Sarengia Langha. These sub-divisions are based on the use of musical instruments used, the Sonia Langha play the shanai (a type of piped instrument) at wedding ceremonies, and the Sarengia play the sarangee. The two groups are endogamous, and are further divided into clans.
According to their traditions, they were Jaat, Rajputs, whose ancestor converted to Islam. They are said to have originated in Sindh, and settled in the village of Baranwa in Barmer District.〔
