| Description | Shadow Puppetry, a form of theatre art is a customary ritual being carried out religiously in over 100 temples with devi deity in Palakkad, Malappuram districts in Kerala, India. Puppetry is usually carried out in ‘Bhadrakali’, goddess temples, the reason being the ferocious war between the goddess Bhadrakali and demon Darika coincided with the epic war between lord Rama and Ravana. Since goddess Bhadrakali could not witness the war, Lord Shiva blessed the goddess promising the entire story of Ramayana to be portrayed through puppetry at Bhadrakali temples. The ritual is being carried out in Bhadrakali temples till date in all its sanctity. | ||
