In films, when an actor comes on screen in the form of a woman, people laugh at him. But do you know that there is a special festival celebrated in India in which men actually dress up like women! No one laughs at them, nor do they make fun of them, rather this is a unique sight of their faith and belief in God, which people come from far and wide to see. We are talking about the Chamayavilakku festival of Kerala.
