A documentary film that puts the spotlight on the form of puppet theatre in Kerala that has only one practitioner left
Freelance journalist-filmmaker Reshmi Radhakrishnan first heard about
Nokkuvdiya Pavakkali, a form of puppet theatre, in 2017. “What was even more shocking or surprising was, Monipally, where the practitioners live, is barely 15-odd kilometres from my hometown, Ramapuram, in Kottayam district. And I had not heard about it,” she says. Curious, she travelled to Monipally to visit one of the last two surviving practitioners of the art form: Moozhikkal Pankajakshi.

Painted by eight artists over four days, the 60x15 feet art work is a busy mosaic of varied images. From coconuts to fish and other things in between, every image in the painting reflects an aspect that defines Kerala.

Kochi: Attempts to create a new post at Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit in Kaladi in order to appoint a Left wing organisation leader has come to light. This is an attempt to give a fresh appointment to an employee who is retiring as library reference assistant. Soon after the appointment of Ninitha Kanichery came to light, the new controversy also made headlines.
The move to create the new post had started in 2018. This post titled ‘Director of Publications’ was created replacing senior public relations officer post. It is alleged that this post was created in order to give a fresh appointment for a Left wing organisation leader who is about to retire from service in April.
