Kudlu is a town in the Kasaragod region, Kerala province, India. Apart from its rich demonstrable and social heritage like Yakshagana – a folk theatre form that combines movement, music, exchange, ensemble, make-up, and organizational strategies in an extraordinary style and setting -, Kudlu stands out from all other towns in Kasaragod for its significance as a place known for its difference. Besides the nearby Siddhivinayaka shrine of Madhur, there are more than three notable shrines in Kudlu, as well as numerous other shrines.
