Ramlila, the enactment of the story of Lord Rama is believed to have been started by great Saint Tulsidas. The Ramcharitmanas, written by him till today forms the basis of Ramlila performances. In some places, Ramlila is associated with the Vijayadashmi celebrations in late Sept. & early Oct. and also with Ramnavami, the birthday of Lord Rama.

Ramlila, basically an enactment of a myth, is presented as a. cycle-play with the story varying from 7 to 31 days. The Ramlila performance evokes a festive atmosphere & enables observance of religious rites. It is also rich in performance crafts such as costume jewellery, masks, headgear, make-up and decoration.

The four main Ramlila styles are the pantomimic style with a predominance of jhankis - tableaux pageants; the dialogue - based style with multi - local staging; the operatic style which draws its musical elements from the folk operas of the region and the stage - Ramlila of the professional troupes called "mandalis
