Decorating wooden dolls of different Goddesses and Gods on an odd number of golu padi (steps) is a tradition followed by Tamilians to celebrate the Navratri festival. As per the tradition of Tamilians, they celebrate the nine days festival as Golu.

After a gap of two years, community members are celebrating the Golu festival in a traditional way in temples. By arranging dolls of different Gods and Goddesses on steps, the devotees try to narrate devotional stories. Firstly, they place a doll of Lord Ganesha and later, other dolls are set up.
