Description :Ballads and folk songs run parallel to each other and together they project, with a fair degree of accuracy, the gross currents of thinking of people. The large collections of ballads were grouped under two beads such as Vadakken Pattukal (Ballads of North Malabar) and Thekken Pattuka! (Ballads of Travancore). This broad division was based on a geographical classification of areas of origin. This paper is the thorough study of broad classification of ballads mainly of historical, religious and social themes.

Ballads and folk songs run parallel to each other and together they project, with a fair degree of accuracy, the gross currents of thinking of people. The large collections of ballads were grouped under two beads such as Vadakken Pattukal (Ballads of North Malabar) and Thekken Pattuka! (Ballads of Travancore). This broad division was based on a geographical classification of areas of origin. This paper is the thorough study of broad classification of ballads mainly of historical, religious and social themes.
