意味
Doing something humorous.
文化的背景
Malayalam cinema is famous for its 'realistic' comedy. Actors like Jagathy Sreekumar and Innocent are masters of 'തമാശ കാണിക്കൽ' through subtle body language. During Onam, people dress up as 'Puli' (tigers) in Puli Kali. This is a grand form of 'തമാശ കാണിക്കൽ' to entertain the public. The 'Troll' culture in Kerala is very strong. Creating a funny meme is often described as 'ഒരു തമാശ ഒപ്പിച്ചു' (pulled off a joke). The 'Appoppan' (Grandfather) in many families is the one who 'shows jokes' to the grandkids, breaking the strict hierarchy of the house.
The 'Don't' Rule
If you want someone to be serious, just say 'Thamasha kaanikkathe!' (Without showing jokes!). It's very effective.
Watch the Context
Calling an elder's behavior 'thamasha kaanikkal' can be seen as very disrespectful, implying they are being childish.
