The Magic of Kathakali

-

Kathakali is one of the highly stylized form of Indian- dance- dramas. This dance form is known for extensive costumes, heavy duty make-up and detailed body gestures. This beautiful eye movement is a soul of this traditional Indian dance form. A Kathakali artist displays well choreographed movements on tune emitted by percussion instruments. When we conjure up the image of a Kathakali performer the idea that immediately pops in head is, sumptuously adorned woman loaded with tons of gold on her chest, a glittery red scarf trailing from her back. The entire panorama looks quite eye captivating.
 Indian state Kerala is an origin place of this dance form. The history of this cultural art form can be traced back since the ages immemorial. However, 17th century and subsequent years are considered as a significant period in terms of refinement of this art form. Sri Manavedan Raja is a man responsible for bringing this art style to life.
Largely, this dance style is heavily influenced by the life activities of Lord Krishna. There is a very popular folklore behind the origin of this art form. As per the tale, once upon a time Kottarakkara Thampuran the king of Kottarakkara was attacked by the Krishnanattam, so he requested Zamorin for the help. But, owing to some political circumstances, he did not allow to do so. So, as a vengeance motive Kottarakkara Thampuran created an art, which widely known as Ramanattam. This art form transformed into Aattakatha, which is popularly known as ‘Kathakali’ in the present date.
