Backstory


In the vibrant chaos of the ancient Thrissur Puram, a baby elephant named Ananda roamed beside his mother, Parvati. The air buzzed with energy as the festival reached its peak, the crowd swelling around the massive temple. Suddenly, a deafening roar of drums and trumpets engulfed them.

Amidst the sea of revelers, Ananda lost sight of his mother. Panic gripped his small heart as he searched desperately through the throng. The rhythmic beats of the festival masked his calls. Tears welled in his eyes as he navigated the labyrinthine alleys, fear overshadowing the joyous celebration.

As despair threatened to consume him, a distant familiarity tugged at Ananda's senses. Guided by instinct, he hastened towards the temple gate. There, beneath the towering entrance adorned with intricate carvings, he spotted Parvati, her eyes reflecting the same concern. With an ecstatic trumpet, Ananda rushed into her waiting embrace. The reunion at the sacred temple gate became a legend, whispered through the ages—a tale of a lost baby elephant, a mother's love, and the serendipitous magic of Thrissur Puram.
