The New Indian Express Kochi

April 09, 2025

AS performers hit the courtyard, dressed up as Garudan Parava with a lengthy beak and a majestic crown, dancing to the rhythm of chenda, the devotees stand in awe as if the deity herself has descended in front of their houses.

- GOPIKA VARRIER @Thrissur

Though considered as a temple art form in southern districts of Kerala, Garudan Parava recently shot to fame, transcending barriers, after being featured in a few films and rapper Hanumankind's song 'Run it Up' which gained international attention.

Garudan Parava ritual is performed as an offering to Goddess Kali by believers to achieve prosperity and peace in their lives.
