Kathakali (Malayalam:കഥകളി, kathakaḷi) is a
stylized classical Indiandance-drama noted for the attractive make-up of characters, elaborate costumes, detailed gestures and well-defined body movements presented in tune with the anchor playback music and complementary percussion. It originated in the country's present day state of Kerala during the 17th century and has developed over the years with improved looks, refined gestures and added themes besides more ornate singing and precise drumming.
The themes of the Kathakali are religious in nature. They typically deal with the Mahabarat, the Ramayana and the ancient scriptures known as the Puranas. This is performed in a text which is generally Sanskritised Malayalam.
Kathakali is a 2016 Tamil action-thriller film directed by Pandiraj, starring Vishal and Catherine Tresa in the lead roles. Co-produced by both Pandiraj and Vishal, Kathakali released on 14 January 2016.
Vishal and Pandiraj announced that they would be collaborating for a film venture in May 2015, with the pair sharing production duties. An official statement announced that work would begin on the film after Pandiraj had finished work on two other ongoing ventures, Pasanga 2 and Idhu Namma Aalu. The first filming schedule began in July 2015, with Catherine Tresa joining the team as the lead heroine after talks with Keerthy Suresh were unsuccessful. The film's title was revealed to be Kathakali in September 2015. Originally scheduled for a Diwali 2015 release, the film was postponed owing to Vishal's commitments in the Nadigar Sangam elections.
