It literally means orchestra song in Kathakali terminology. It is the display of the skills of musicians and drummers in the midst of Kathakali’s traditional entrée/aperitif called Purappadu. In this, the musicians render six couplets of the 21st Ashtapadi of Jayadeva’s Geethagovindam in different ragas, to the accompaniment of subtle & vigorous orchestra, portraying all aspects of the skill of the artistes other than the dancers / actors.
