Soorakkavacham Duryodhanan Performance That Shocked the Audience Traditional Folk Art of Tamil Nadu.
Rural art became and has always been the treasure of culture, devotion, and emotional narration of Tamil Nadu. The Soorakkavacham folk drama is one of such spectacles where ancient mythological characters are performed with force of acting, music and costumes.
In this play, the actor who plays Duryodhanan fully reinvents his look as well as his energy, and in this performance the actor gives a spectacular representation which shows anger on the one hand and divinity on the other. The costumes, make-up, and facial expressions are an ideal reflection of the atmosphere of folk art of traditional Therukoothu (street theatre) and Pambai.
A Scene of Transformation and Devotion.
The scene in which Duryodhanan transforms his divine appearance (which is depicted in the picture) was astonishing to the whole audience. His wailing exchanges, animated movements, and religious presence were electrifying the stage.
It is not merely entertainment but it is an experience of spirituality and we get to remember our rich Tamil culture and the tales of Mahabharata that are still telling generations.
