Ganesha Kauthuvam br Ragam - Nataibr Talam- Adibr br Ganesha Kauthuvam - Lord Ganapathi, son of Parvati and Shiva and the remover of obstacles. He has an elephantine countenance with a curved trunk and big ears, and a huge pot-bellied body of a human being. This is a fast-paced invocatory dance where the dancers offers their prayers to the Lord Ganesha and seeks his blessings to make the event success. In a Kauthuvam, chollukattus (rhythmic syllables) are intertwined with the lyrics of the song. Thus it has both nritta (footwork) and abhinaya (expressions) components in its choreography.
