It is necessary that the Dravidian ideas, which flourish in the South Asian background and emphasize rationality and self-respect, are disseminated at the local social levels, and rooted in local cultures. Dialogues on Dravidian ideologies are necessary to unleash the Aryan patriarchal cultural structures of inequality and create new cultures full of equality, independence, freedom, and social justice. The need and the need to take these ideas to the grassroots levels of societies, where they can be discussed, discussed, and disseminated, are realized and possible mechanisms are considered. In this way, the participatory research activity for Koothu regeneration that has been proposed and carried out since the beginning of the second millennium in Eelam is recognized as one of the possible methods that have mechanisms to bring constructive ideas to the grassroots communities. In this article, it is examined how Dravidian ideas have influenced the regeneration of such a koothu.
