Thuruthikara is a traditional Kerala art form known for narrating folk tales and ballads. It involves the performance of ballads with musical accompaniment using percussion instruments like chenda and maddalam.
Thuruthikara dates back to at least the 17th century in Kerala. It was traditionally performed by wandering minstrels at temple festivals and community gatherings to narrate mythical tales and folklores.
The main themes covered in Thuruthikara performances include tales from Hindu epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata, folktales centered around local deities, stories of brave warriors and historical events.
The main percussion instruments used to provide rhythmic accompaniment for Thuruthikara recitation are chenda, maddalam and ilathalam. Sometimes harmonium or fiddle may also be incorporated.
Traditionally, Thuruthikara performers wore a plain white dhoti with a shawl over their shoulder. Some may also wear a turban or headgear while performing to enhance the storytelling experience.
Thuruthikara performances can be witnessed at temple festivals and community get-togethers especially in rural areas of Kerala. Some cultural organizations also organize staged performances of this folk art form.
