 •  The legend behind the surattappali shivan : During the Samudra Manthan (the churning of the ocean of milk) by the Gods and demons, many treasures along with the Amrita and the poison, come out of the ocean.
 •  To rescue the beings of the world from the poison, Shiva consumed it. When the poison was just going down the throat of Shiva, his consort Parvati stopped it there by tightly holding Shiva’s throat, turning Shiva's neck blue.
 •  After that, Shiva proceeded to his abode, Kailash, with Parvati. On the way, he felt exhausted and slightly uncomfortable when he reached a place in the bounds of Andhra, which came to be called Suruttappalli. There, he lied down to relax, keeping his head in the lap of Parvati. 
 •  Surutappali shivan is a traditional Kolu doll crafted with clay. 
 •  Decorate your Kolu Padi with this unique collection of Golu dolls for this Navarathri from GiriAus . 
 •  This Dassara doll is an ideal present for festivals like Navaratri, Diwali, and housewarmings. 
 •  During Navaratri, people visit each other's homes to see the Golu display and offer prayers. It is considered an auspicious time to seek blessings from the Divine and to celebrate the victory of good over evil.
 •  This doll stands apart from usual golu bommai because it is painted in vivid, rich colors with a different composition and definition.
