The title song from popular Kerala-based music-band, Thaikkudam Bridge’s recent album, Navarasam is out. The song, a classic rock number sung by Vipin Lal and written by Dhanya Suresh is a tribute to Kathakali, one of the major forms of classical dance in India.

Everything you can imagine is real. When you perform Kathakali, the body syncs entirety to the art. The Navarasas claim dignity and then follows the fascination to the characters.
