Kathakali is famous dance form mostly performed by men.
Kathakali is still hugely a male domain but, since the 1970s, females too have made entry into the art form on a recognizable scale.

Kathakali dance
Typically all the actor-dancers are males who get dressed up as woman or man depending on the role, but in modern performances women have been welcomed into the Kathakali tradition
