    The Kottankulangara Festival or Chamayavilakku is an annual Hindu festival Kerala, India in which thousands of male devotees dress-up as females and celebrate the festival.
    Kottangkulangara Chamayavilakku, a unique festival held at the Kottankulangara Sree Devi Temple, Chavara near Kollam, where men dressed up as women offer ...
    Kottankulangara Chamayavilakku - A Carnival of Lights
    Every year as the sunset embraces Kottankulangara on 10th and 11th of the Malayalam month of Meenam (second half of March),
    Akin to every temple festival, Chamayavilakku of Sree Kottankulangara Devi Temple in Kollam also has processions with beautiful ladies holding lamps in their hands. But here if you take a closer look, you can see that it is not ladies who bear the lamps but men!
    Men from across the State doll up as damsels wearing sarees, shimmering trinkets, jasmine garlands and elaborate make-up take part in this unique ritual. Disregarding caste, creed, age and gender stereotypes, men dressed as women hold the divine Chamayavilakku (traditional lamp) and walk around the temple as a symbol of their devotion for the presiding deity and to get their wishes fulfilled.
    The famed Chamayavilakku ritual that starts in the evening and continues till dawn takes place on the final two days of the 19-day long festival. Giant caparisoned tusker carrying the Thidambu (idol of deity) can be seen throughout the night.
    The festival has also turned out to be the largest congregation of the transgender community in Kerala as it offers them a space to celebrate their identity.
    Walking into this sea of gorgeous “ladies” is truly an amazing experience that will stay in your heart long after you leave the place. Myriad events such as classical concerts, dynamic percussions, glittering illuminations and a display of colorful umbrellas and floats add to the visual extravaganza. Like most of the temple festivals of Kerala, in Kottankulangara too the skies flaunt an unparalleled spectacle of fireworks.
    Kuruthola Panthal (structure made of tender coconut leaves), an exclusive festival scene from Kottankulangara is reminiscent of tradition and culture. where the deity resides during the festival days.This is a model of a temple made of kuruthola.
    The story The legend has it that a group of cowherds found a coconut and tried to break it with a stone they found in the woods. The stone bled, the scared cowherds ran to the village elders,
    astrologers who divined the presence of the Goddess. Those days, girls used to offer pujas in the temples. Since this was a forest, the cowherds dressed up as girls and offered the puja. To this day, for the festival, men dress up as women and carry out a procession during the night to please the goddess. The celebration Come evenings and people start gathering along the roads leading to the Kottamkulangara temple. Men from across the state join the procession, dressed in sarees, jewelleries, and put on makeup and take part in this unique ritual. The men hold the divine Chamayavilakku (traditional lamp) and walk around the temple as a symbol of their devotion to the presiding deity, and pray to get their wishes fulfilled. dress up in sarees and colourful salwar suits. And that is not all, they wear bangles, flowers on their hair and wait patiently for the goddess to come out of the temple and bless them. Over the last couple of years, a lot of members of the LGBT community arrive in droves for this festival. For them, it is a celebration of their pride. But, you will also find men dressed as women - looking every bit awkward and out of their elements here too. The underlying emotion here is reverence to the mother goddess. When is it? This year, the festival is on March 23 and March 24 How to reach: Kottamkulangara is near Chavara in Kollam District. Situated close to the National Highway, buses will be the easiest way to reach the temple. If you are traveling by train, you can get off at Kollam and take a bus to Kottankulangara.
    एक ऐसा ही त्योहार है 'चमयाविलक्कू' उत्सव, (Chamayavilakku festival) जो केरल के कोल्लम जिले के देवी मंदिर में हर साल मार्च की महीने में मनाया जाता है. हालांकि, त्योहार का सबसे दिलचस्प पहलू यह है कि, इसे सेलिब्रेट करने के लिए पुरुष साड़ी पहनकर महिलाओं की तरह तैयार होते हैं और एक अनोखे अनुष्ठान में शामिल होते हैं.
