Folk Ritual Pallippana

The folk ritual Pallippana seen in  Central Kerala (India) is performed to please the Goddess Bhadrakali. It is a 24 hour ritual with various ritualistic functions.

Because of its complicated nature and the exhaustive budget, only few temples conduct this ritual annually.  But some temples conduct this with less number of performers as there is a lack of trained artists . The greatest worry for today's performers is that no youngsters are coming to this field to uphold the tradition of Pallipana.  CLICK HERE to read more on the rirual Pallippaana
