In South India the festival of KOLU PANDIGAI (display of dolls) is very famous. During Navaraathri Goddess Durga holds court or durbar complete with her crown, sceptre and mace. This durbar, or royal assembly of dolls is called Kolu. It is anunwritten law and the convention that the first two dolls put on the show are those of a couple made of wood called "marappacchi" or Tirupathi dolls.
