The Ancient Towns of MALABAR feat. FIRE THEYYAM

Join us on a journey through India's Malabar region (in Kerala) as we explore the towns of Palakkad, Thalassery and Kannur, where the vibrant cultural tradition of Fire Theyyam takes center stage. This ancient ritual dance is a celebration of the divine and a display of incredible athleticism and artistry. In this video, we take you on a tour of the region, showcasing the unique beauty of Palakkad and Thalassery and the significance of Fire Theyyam in Kannur. From the mesmerising dance moves, to the intricate costumes and masks, to the fiery energy of the performers, this video is a must-see for anyone interested in Indian culture and tradition.

ABOUT US -
Hi! We are Pooja & Shravan, an illustrator-engineer duo from Bangalore brought together by the love of travel and adventure.

We have traveled together since the winter of 2016. On one such trip, we started documenting these travels on a humble phone camera. We soon realised that we really enjoy capturing these experiences. We are entirely self taught (students of the internet) and have learnt from binging on brilliant creators over the years.

In our videos you might find glimpses of places that are not spoken about enough. We always vouch for spots that are somewhat the underdogs. Our vlogs are sometimes vlog-ish and sometimes a documentation of the place as we see it. We hope that watching these videos will bring a little dose of joy to your day.

We love reading your comments and hearing your thoughts.
They motivate us and help us steer our creative path.

With love,
Pooja & Shravan

--- CHAPTERS ---
We don't believe in Chapters. Like how music albums are meant to be heard in full and not as individual tracks, we believe, that our videos are meant to be watched as a whole and not as chapters.
