Golu is the festive display of dolls and figurines during Navaratri. South Indians display beautiful doll decorations to celebrate Dasara, with most of them based on interesting themes narrating a legend from a Hindu text or a secular cultural issue. The golu display is also known as Kolu, Gombe Habba, Bommai Kolu or Bommala Koluvu.
