Wayanad Collector takes to Kathakali, leaves a mark

The ‘Nalacharitam first day’ Kathakali presentation by Wayanad District Collector A. Geetha along with her friends at the Melekkavu auditorium of the Sree Bhagavathi temple at Vaaliyoorkavu, near Mananthavady, on Saturday, was a rewarding experience for the audience.

An episode from the ‘Nalacharitam’, composed by Unnayi Warrier, was performed by Ms. Geetha along with Subhadra Nair, former deputy planning officer, Wayanad; and Rathi Sudheer, surveyor, Soil Conservation department.

“With their performance, the artists have proved that they are capable of preserving the traditional nuances of Kathakali as well as of improvisation,” K. Prabhakaran Nair, a Kathakali expert, said.
