✓Kathakali is one among the eight classical dances of India.
✓It is a blend of dance, music and acting. The dance involves dramatisation of stories, adapted mostly from the Indian epics.
✓The roles generally portrayed include kings, gods and demons, the vocalists narrate the legend and the percussionists play the musical instruments.
✓Kathakali involves use of heavy make-up and stunning costumes (elaborate masks, huge skirts and big head-dresses).
✓Different facial colours are used to indicate different mental stages & character, for example green- nobility, black- wickedness and red patches- combining royalty & evil.
