Tholu Bommalata caught my attention when I watched it for the first time on DD National. I got the opportunity to learn a lot more about this traditional craft of puppetry in one of my research based college assignments and the story behind the making of these leather puppets was fascinating.
Here are some illustrations of my favorite characters from Ramayana based on Tholu Bommalata.
पवनपुत्र हनुमान (Hanuman, Son of The Wind God)
रामचन्द्र (Moon-like gentle, Rama)
लंकापति रावण (Raavan, King of Lanka)
