PURAVIYATTAM.

    This is one of the oldest folk arts of Tamil Nadu.Both men and women perform this. Men dress like a King and women dress like a Queen. It is called as poikal kuthirai( dummy horse) because the performers tie wooden Legs and get into the decorated dummy horse made for the performance.

        Facial expressions,to and fro movement of the house,the swiftness with which the dance is performed adds beauty to this art form. This is one folk art Which is appreciated and enjoyed by the people of all ages.

  Thank you.

All institutions across the Country,including your school,hoist the national Flag and salute it with Pride.
