The tradition
Pilivēṣa in "Tiger Masque" is a folk dance unique in coastal Karnataka, India. Pilivēṣa is performed during Navratri to honour the Goddess Durga, whose favoured animal is the tiger (mārnemi). Mangalore Dasara is one of the festivals during which a large number of enthusiasts participate. It originated in Udupi District of Karnataka and was initially performed during the Krishna Janmashtami/Mosarukudike and Ganesha Chaturthi at Mangalore, Udupi, Moodabidri, Kundapur and many other places in Tulu Nadu.¶
