Kalamezhuthum Pattum

Kalamezhuthum Pattum is a ritualistic performance where figure of the deity is drawn on the floor with natural powders. After folk songs and some tantric rituals, drawing is rubbed off by the performer in trance. The ritual Kalamezhuthu (drawing) and Pattu (song) together is called Kalamezuthum pattum.
