Navaratri Golu is a South Indian festival during the Navaratri period where families arrange and display a variety of dolls and figurines, often on tiered stands, to represent various themes and Hindu deities. The display, also known as Bommai Golu in Tamil and Bomala Koluvu in Telugu, honors the goddess Shakti and is an integral part of the Navaratri celebration, involving social visits, offering prayers, and sharing sweets with guests. Doll displays: Families set up tiered stands, often in odd numbers of steps (e.g., 3, 5, 7, or 9), to create a "court of dolls". Thematic arrangements: The dolls can depict various themes, such as legends from Hindu texts, everyday life, weddings, or mythological stories. Arrangement: The steps are often arranged to mirror the architecture of a temple, with deities and figurines facing east. Festivities: The nine-day celebration involves inviting friends and family, singing, performing pujas, and sharing prasadham (blessed food). Cultural significance: Golu is a social and spiritual event, promoting community and providing a way to connect with the divine through displays and rituals.
