Most of us have at some point hosted or visited a home with a navarathri bommai (dolls) golu display. These dolls come as couples dressed in their wedding attire, depicting husband and wife symbolising prosperity and fertility and the start of the bride’s Golu collection. Display figurines are passed on from one generation to another as heirlooms, and are often several generations old.

To celebrate the beginning of Navratri, VGP Marine Kingdom created India’s first underwater bommai golu display which was specially crafted to prevent dissolving underwater. Normally these dolls are made of clay or other soluble materials. The artisans at VGP took on the challenge to ensure the same will withstand the salt water, while staying environmentally safe for thousands of it’s visitors to come and see

The unveiling was graced by Honouble Minister of Tamil Nadu Tourism, Dr. M Mathiventan after taking a tour of the 70,000 sq.ft walkthrough aquarium on 24th September, 2022.

Visit VGP Marine Kingdom between the 24th September till October 5th, 2022 to see this one of a kind display.

Venue: VGP Marine Kingdom, Sh49, Injambakkam, East Coast Road, Chennai 600115
