The raga is Mukhari - Kathakali is an incredible art form though, this is my first time watching a performance of it!

I used to be so scared of Kathakali characters back when I was a kid. I would run away from the Ujala commercials.
But now, they are so beautiful!!!

In some parts of India, the female roles are played by men, so there might be confusion there. It's like with Shakespeare/ kabuki... originally women weren't allowed on stage so it was all played by men

there are female characters in kathakali. Draupati (Bhagavat Gita)/Damayanti (Nalacharitham) are popular female characters. Search on youtube for "vanaprastham" its a movie about a kathakali dancer has a female kathakali character in it.
