GM Friends PULI KALI (Tiger Dance) is one of Kerala’s folk-art forms performing at Thrissur. The artist begins the practise by shaving off all body hair. Then a skilled painter paints artist’s body with a single coat of paint prepared especially for him. After the initial coat dries, another coat is added to make the colours more vibrant, bright and realistic. It takes an entire day to transform a guy into a tiger. Over the years, Puli Kali has become a popular tourist attraction. People come to Kerala in August and September to see this magnificent procession commemorating history, art, and culture. King Mahabali appears in the guise of these men to see his subjects full with joy and laughter and to shower them with even more of it.
