Velu Asan, a trainer in Thappattam from Vadipatti says, “Performers from the surroundings of Vadipatti became famous after they played for M Karunanidhi's election campaign once in the 70's. From then on, 'Vadipatti Kottu' became a desired performance in political meetings, rallies and even protests,” he says. “This is one folk art that's versatile and the occasions we play it for are varied now. The arrival of Chendamelam from Kerala has eaten into our business but recently the awareness about native music is increasing and people are hiring us even for weddings.” The parai (Tamil:பறை) or thappu (Tamil:தப்பு) is one of the oldest drums used in India, especially in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, It is considered as one of the symbols of Tamil culture.
