This instrument is often used in the Sikh religious music known as Gurbani Kirtan.

The player of the chimta can produce a chiming sound if he holds the joint of the instrument in one hand and strikes the two sides of the chimta together.

The jingles are made of metal and thus it produces a metallic sound and helps to keep up the beat of the song.

The chimta consists of a long, flat piece of steel or iron that is pointed at both ends and folded over in the middle.

A metal ring is attached near the fold, and there are jingles or rings attached along the sides at regular intervals. Sometimes there are seven pairs of jingles. The rings are plucked in a downward motion to produce tinkling sound.
