Koimpidaran (Koyimpada Nair) is the character of which ritualistic art form ?

  • A.Ninabali
  • B.Mudiyattu
  • C.Chimmanakkali
  • D.Pateni

Answer: B

The character belongs to Mudiyettu.

Mudiyettu is the ritual dance-drama of central Kerala's Bhagavati temples, inscribed by UNESCO in 2010. It enacts the battle between the goddess Kali and the demon Darika, and Koimbidar (Koyimpada Nair), the goddess's attendant, is one of its stock characters alongside Shiva, Narada, Darika and Danavendra.

Ninabali, Chimmanakkali and Pateni (Padayani) are other ritual or folk forms, and Koimbidar is not a character of theirs.
