The legend of Cheralath Bhagavathi tells of a divine manifestation who emerged to protect her community from evil forces and bring blessings of prosperity and harmony.

The performer executes dynamic dance movements that tell the story of the goddess, her battles against evil, and her blessings upon devotees. Community members gather to witness this sacred manifestation, seeking blessings for family protection, prosperity in their endeavors, resolution of conflicts, and spiritual guidance.
