@dsourceindia Cheriyal painting originates from a small village in Telangana’s Warangal district and is a distinctive folk art tradition of the Deccan region. Similar to Pattachitra, Warli, and Phad, Cheriyal narrates stories through vibrant scroll paintings that unfold like comic strips or cinematic reels. These long vertical cloth scrolls vividly depict episodes from Indian epics such as the Ramayana, Mahabharata, and tales of Krishna Leela, among others. Recognised for its rich storytelling tradition and cultural significance, Cheriyal painting was awarded the Geographical Indication (GI) tag in 2007, affirming its authenticity and heritage value. Explore the bold colours, expressive figures, and timeless narratives of Cheriyal art, a living tradition that continues to preserve India’s mythological legacy.
