History of Golu
The tradition of displaying golu dolls, also known as kolu bommai in Tamil, bommala koluvu in Telugu, and bombe habba in Kannada, dates back to the Vijayanagara Empire (14th–16th century). These dassara dolls narrate epic stories, honor deities, and preserve folk culture. Over time, the practice became a beloved family custom, with each golu doll chosen to symbolize mythological, spiritual, or cultural significance. Including this Krishna golu bommai keeps this age-old devotional art form alive.

The Legend of Bakasura Vadham
In Krishna’s childhood tales, the demon Bakasura, sent by the evil Kamsa, disguised himself as a colossal crane and attacked Krishna and his friends. With divine fearlessness, Krishna allowed the demon to swallow him, only to burst out unharmed. Seizing Bakasura’s beak, Krishna tore it apart effortlessly, ending the demon’s reign of terror. This miraculous victory not only protected the people of Vrindavan but also reinforced Krishna’s role as the divine child who safeguarded dharma through his leelas.
