Roll no 41
Ranamale
This is a form similar to the Ramlila in the north of India. It renders the story of Rama in its particular way. Ranamale does not extend beyond Sattari taluka and some parts of Sanguem taluka Indeed the mass mind does not seem to carry a strong impression of the story of Lord Rama.

Apart from songs related to wedding ceremonies, folk songs seems to be full of the story of Krishna, of other tales of the Mahabharata and of Vitthala and Rakhumai. It is said that the episode of Rama's killing the demoness Tratika is rendered in some places, the performances are found nowhere but the the temple of Mhalsa at Mardol.
