Description

This traditional folk puppet represents a male character from Indian folk theatre. The puppet wears a yellow-and-red turban, a light-coloured printed long kurta and a colourful traditional lower garment. Its prominent moustache, sharply arched eyebrows and large expressive eyes give the character a distinctive and dramatic appearance. The costume and facial design are suitable for portraying an authoritative, royal or influential male character in folk puppetry.
