As the oldest folk theatrical art, Karyala boasts captivating uniqueness. Its extraordinary essence emerges from the absence of rehearsals or pre-written scripts, as each act unfolds live before the audience's eyes. The author has emphasized the role of Karyala as a theatre art form which plays a powerful role in rural communication within Himachal Pradesh. However, as societal changes sweep through people's lives, Karyala has also experienced the wind of change. Preserving this treasured folk theatre is imperative, ensuring that future generations embrace and appreciate our cultural heritage.
