Theyyam is a colourful socioreligious dance form that is the amalgamation of ritual, vocal and instrumental music, dance, painting, and literature and its genesis can be traced to the coastal regions of the southern Indian states of Kerala and Karnataka. | March 14, 2023 | 📷: abhichinnappa | #GettyImagesNews⁠ #Theyyam #India
