Kandanar Kelan Theyyam Kandanar Kelan Theyyam is a powerful North Kerala ritual performance depicting the deification of a brave farmer/hunter who died in a forest fire and was reborn, acting as a forest guardian. Performed by the Vannan community, this, one of the most dramatic theyyams, involves the performer dancing through, kicking, and running into massive, roaring bonfires to symbolize the legend. #theyyam #performing #kannur
