Kerala and the Malayali/Malayalee people are a universe onto itself.. They come in all shapes, sizes, races, colors, religions, castes etc.. Malayali is only an ethano-linguistic Indian community who speak the Malayalam language along the historic Malabar Coast of India.
Very nice video. Onam festival is celebrated by people of all faith. That is the secularism of Kerala. Long live Kerala,its tradition. ❤ From Tamilnadu.
Kerala is truly God's Own Country! The generosity of the people of Kerala is next level. It's a beautiful place with a rich culture and natural beauty.
I was so impressed with these people, their perseverance and hard work is amazing. I was equally amazed at the construction of the boat and also the beauty of it. This was a very fine documentary on these Indian people.
What a fantastic docu, marvellous. I so enjoyed watching that, a wonderful experience that must have been. I'm an old man and housebound, videos like this allow me to live a life so different. Thank you?
ഇത്രയും വള്ളം കളി മത്സരങ്ങളും ബാക്വാട്ടർ ഏരിയയും ഉള്ള കേരളത്തിൽ നിന്ന് ഒരാള് പോലും ഒളിമ്പിക്സിൽ പോകുന്നില്ല... 😔😔😔 നമ്മുടെ സർക്കാരുകളുടെ പ്രവർത്തന മികവ് ആണ് അത് കാണിക്കുന്നത്... ഇതൊക്കെ വേറെയേതെങ്കിലും രാജ്യത്ത് ആയിരുന്നെങ്കിൽ ഒത്തിരി പേരുടെ ജീവിതം രക്ഷപെട്ടേനെ
@@MMX-fh5tn Yes and no, Malayalam is name of the language spoken by people beyond the mountain. Its difficult to say which came first. But both indicate identified by the mountains.
@@pseudonym9215 The naming is usually done by "others".. the name "India" is coming from the people who lived around the river Indus.. That's how the ancient Greeks referred to Indians, but that doesn't mean everyone in India lived around a river.. Just like that, the name of the language "Malayalam" is coming from the other.. and as one side of Kerala is mountains, it is the language of the mountain areas.. That doesn't mean Malayalam is just spoken in mountainous areas, as the other side of Kerala is lush lakes and backwaters..
As a South African Indian,😢 that was our culture and world we left behind, we are resilient people living on a different but Beautiful Land... would like to visit and spend at least 6 months cause the South is a big country 😂.
In India, probably Kerala is the only state where people love water and the boat services are used extensively for transport and livelihood. This could be because Kerala is the only state in India which is not just covered but in built with water at most places in the form of lakes, rivers, waterfalls and even ponds at many temples. No wonder Kerala is the best and most beautiful state of India with abundant natural resources. So, people born in KErala are grown seeing all these and in earlier days, it was one of the favourite passtime of kids and youth to spend time with friends in and around pond or river and the daily routine including bath in ponds. Even today many of those pilgrims who visit Sabarimala take compulsory bath in temple ponds or rivers as available on their route. And one of the best thing about Kerala and even its people is that till now they have no polluted their rivers or ponds or even sea coastline, though slowly with developing times, more of wastages are found in all these places, with no Govt., Corporation or Panchayats or even people serious about maintaining these natural water habitat in its purest form. Kerala is lucky to have such natural resources, but seems people of Kerala doesn't value their own resources as both greenery and natural resources are getting destroyed. So, Keralites are naturally water and boat people, while in rest of India, people are scared of water and all the water resources are spoiled or made dirty with no care. Kudos to the people of Kerala for maintaining whatever they have and their passion for nature, though foolishly rest of India might laugh at it.
Sabarimala take compulsory bath in temple ponds or rivers as available on their route lol. I am malayali, seen many rivers and ponds during my visit to kerala, its very dirty, dare not swim.
@@prakashsivan1234 Absolutely agreed, things are not as clean as earlier. And I am sorry that you could only find rivers and ponds which are dirty. Govt. and people should take responsibility to clean it. However, it also means that you have not seen the real rivers and ponds of other parts of India and so you will never know what is the real meaning of dirty. atleast Kerala rivers and ponds are better, I might agree that its not as clean as it should be.
A class A documentary - quite interesting ! Many thanks to the film makers and the people who live this lifestyle. May all prosper & enjoy good fortune! Peace.
I live say 15 kms east of this place. We get to see lakes and occean rarely. Our lives are literally devoid of any waterbodies except for the ones we watch in movies and youTube. This is not my lifestyle. Please do not misunderstand, there is ample variety in landscape and lifestyle every ten kilometres.
Onam is a Hindu festival. But for all Malayalees, Onam and Vishu are cultural identity festivals. That's why even non Hindus and atheist also take part in the festivities.
@@Crimsonashes12038 I'm a Hindu and from Kerala. The mythology is associated with Hibduism because it was the prominent religion of that time. Primarily both of these are Harvest festivals, which are celebrated all across India in Different names like Bihu, Pongal etc.
Stitched ship making is an Indian Ocean tradition. It has nothing to do with Egypt. There is no evidence of building a ship/boat by stitching planks of woods together using a rope.
They settled rivalries by boat races. They don’t over fish when the fish are spawning. All comes from the water, sustains life, goes back to the water. Feels like our “advanced” Western way of life won’t sustain on land near shores with global warming, etc. But the Maliyali’s have got this covered too; they build their homes on raised land. They are prophetic to have kept their ancient and self sustaining way of communal life. Doubt many on Prozac, 😂 lol.
Thanks dear everyone our Indian Kerala brother How beautiful your day culture and very lovely looking yours compilation of boats thanks dear everyone friends thanks; 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Very poorly produced film piece, with a lame voice-over. 😒. Narrator barely attempts to correctly pronounce "Malayali" or any other local word including the name of the state. Tries to imply that the "MALAYALI" is some sort of water-dwelling boat people like in the movie Waterworld. There are 30 million MALAYALIS doing a lot of other things. This French guy tries to show Malayalis as some sort of Amazon rain forest tribe with a 1990s National Geographic feel. And worse are the lame-a** actual Malayali commentors from Dubai and around the world clapping for this crap. Take a trip home once in a while and see the real Kerala, with so much diversity than just boats !!
There are still people living in such condition, nothing wrong, and its a small proportion, which already mention earlier in the video, dont over raw or over glorified, as though you are the world best class society.
Iam a malayali watching your videos for years.Never expected to see my homeland in your videos. Thanks to everyone behind it.

From Tamilnadu.
christianity and islam is the biggest reason..as majority of kerala is non hindus,..hindus are communal and casteism
It's great that you recognise KERALA 😅
Just can’t understand these people are Christians, what on earth are they praying to a Hindu idol God
Shame on you people.
Kerala is truly God's Own Country! The generosity of the people of Kerala is next level. It's a beautiful place with a rich culture and natural beauty.
So nice place and people with nice traditions ❤. I have a bounce of Malayali friends living in Germany and Poland. Greetings from 🇧🇩

It's the lifestyle of the people of Kuttanad, not of the entire Kerala. It's an over generalized image of Kerala. Appreciate the effort anyway 🎉
When was this record felt like decade before
amazing memories to recall
cool, please use more subtitles. I want to hear them talk
😍wow..feeling excited to see see our place on your documentary. Found me & my friend 21:03 🤩
In my country there's a boat rowing competition called SARAWAK REGATTA.

Beautiful boats they make.
Thank you ! Please come and see for yourself!
Salute to these people who are guardians and preserving fathers of the wonderful gift of water that nature has given us.
My best friend from Kerala,his family make the best fish curry I ever had.

When was this recoreded?
I wish more people knew about this side of India
