Narakasuravadham Kathakali Dance Drama Kerala

[@ashwani2044]

As a kid I used to watch it on doordarshan and found it boring..but now when I am grown up..can see the beautiful details of this ancient art form and the efforts it would take by the artists to master it. Really proud of my Indian diverse heritage.

[@2441979D]

Such a beautiful artform, I wish there were closed captions to understand various scenes in the story.

[@Trini1845]

Omg the kathakali drums sound similar to the Tassa drums in Trinidad they share the similar beat is amazing, they are thousands of miles from each other.they share ame indian ancestry 🌼🌼🌼

[@Xyzctx]

Check out Nazik Dhol, it's more similar to Tassa

[@PankajKumar21]

Because india was the part of africa in ancient times .

[@aparnamenon262]

Yes it sounds similar. Tassa drums sounds bit more like Nashik Dhol. The one in this video is Thayambaka/Chenda melam!

After watching this video I got to know why Kathakali is called as a story play ❤️

[@twocrazyboys4367]

I remember old doordarshan's programme about all traditional folk dances always loved it and still love folk dances.

[@kevinxavier4324]

Bro this isn’t a folk dance it’s one of the 8 classical dances of India....dances like Bhangra or garba can be called folk these art forms are more than 3000 years old

[@monsoon_magic2874]

The lady is Nakrathundi, a maid of Narakasura. She is enamored of Jayanta, the son of Indra and attempts to seduce him in the disguise of a lovely woman. Jayanta sees through this and shoos her away. Nakrathundi takes her original form as an ugly demoness and tries to molest Jayanta who cuts off her breasts.

[@harshaswell]

Can anyone please help understand what was going on in the act..??

[@indiavideodotorg]

This video presents the story Narakasuravadham (Killing of Narakasura). The performance revolves around the story of Narakasura, a vicious demon and Jayantha, the valorous son of Lord Indra (King of Gods). Nakrathundi, Narakasura’s sister gets attracted to Jayantha and approaches him in the guise of Lalitha, a beautiful woman. Jayantha rejects her love and the disappointed demoness takes her normal form and attacks him. He injures her and a shocked Narakasura vows to take revenge, only to find himself punished for his wrongs. Thank you

Nakrathundi, Narakasura’s sister gets attracted to Jayantha and approaches him in the guise of Lalitha, a beautiful woman. Jayantha rejects her love and the disappointed demoness takes her normal form and attacks him. He injures her (taken from the website posted in the description box)

[@aneeshvernekar3669]

Plot Narakathundi,A She-Demon had got a message from his brother,Narakasur. Narkasur was the King of Demons. Narkasur wanted to conquer Swarga(Heaven). He didn't know what was happening in heaven. So, he gave the responsibility to scout heaven to Narakathundi. And so Narakathundi disguised herself as a seductive woman named Lalitha. While Lalitha was scouting heaven,She met the prince of Heaven Jayanthanan,a handsome warrior. She fell in love and asked him to marry her. He told that without his father's permission he won't marry her. Hearing this,Lalitha came in her true form as a She-Demon. Jayanthanan and Narakathundi had a battle. Jayanthanan cleansed his Sword and gone to Indra Dev(King of Heaven) to tell what and all had happened.
