• The most significant component of the Navarathri Golu decorations is this pair of Wooden Marapachi dolls, which represent Sri Venkateshwara and Lakshmi, his bride.
•  Rosewood was initially used to craft the Marapachis. This could resemble a male and female deity, such as Ram Parivar or Ganesha, among others.
• It is also customary to worship the Marapachi, which has deity-like characteristics. 
• The paste of the marapachi is also administered to the forehead of young children when they are sick with a cold or fever by pressing it on the grinding stone.
• The parents of the newlyweds gave them Marapachi Bommai. Marapachi dolls are thought to have originated in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh.
