Chand Kuutichathan

Chand Kuttichathan Theyyam is a prominent, dynamic ritualistic performance native to the North Malabar region of Kerala. Representing a fierce yet benevolent ancestral deity, this Theyyam is closely associated with the legend of Chathan, a mischievous, powerful form of Lord Shiva’s lineage known for protecting the innocent and punishing wrongdoers. The performance is characterized by its vibrant, elaborate facial makeup, striking red attire, and a distinct, intricate headdress (Mudi). Known for its high-energy movements and intense expressions, the deity frequently leaps across fires or interacts playfully with devotees, blessing them with prosperity and protection.
