Kathakali, literally meaning `story-play', is a dance-drama originated
in the 17th century in Kerala, one of the smallest states in India lying on the
west coast of the Indian peninsula. However, its roots could be tracked back even
to the earlier times. Koodiyattom, the only surviving form of Sanskrit theater
in India has been preserved in Kerala for centuries, now, by a small community
called Chakyar as a part of their hereditary temple service. Krishnanattom, another
form of dancedrama considered fore runner to Kathakali in its origin, is performed
even today at the famous Sree Krishna temple in Guruvayoor as an offering to the
Lord. Besides these two forms, elements from martial, ritualistic, socio-religious
arts have also influenced in the making of Kathakali. Though Kathakali is only
300 years old, a great deal of enrichment and refinement has taken place in every
aspect of its technique during this short period. Scholars are of opinion that
Kathakali is the result of a fusion between all Indian theater tradition represented
by Koodiyattom and the indigenous tradition of folk dance forms.

town of Kumarakom. Here we board our houseboat, converted from a Kettavallum or

Houseboat : No trip to Kerala is complete without a backwater cruise on a

and Modern houseboats are a tribute to traditional design, ingenuity, aesthetic
values and commitment to the environment. Many of them are equipped with solar
lighting, chemical toilets and outboard engines for when you want to skim the
waters. The best way to cruise the backwaters of Kerala however, is in a leisurely

the taking.
