    Polika Polika - A brief graphic novel on "Pottan Theyyam"



    Why an illustrated story book?

    Pottan Theyyam is regarded as the one with solid and fierce thoughts strong enough to shatter the ugly walls of caste systems and social evils. The sarcastic talks during Pottan Theyyam's performance are always fun to watch but the younger generation is not aware of the context of the banter. A graphical form was chosen to convey the defence of Pottan Theyyam for a social cause in a more effective way.
    Polika which means Rise and Celebration.
