Udupi, Aug 30, 2014: While most idols are made of artificial colours, plaster of paris or other stuff, here in Udupi is eco-friendly.
The idol is entirely made of natural substances. Seives, arecanut peels, jute ropes, giant leaves and other materials have been creatively used to sculpt the idol. The tusks are made of paper while the attire of the idol is prepared from handmade paper.

The idol has been assembled by the enterprising team of Srinath Manipal, Venky Palimar and Ravi Heerebettu of Manipal sand heart artists in association with Sai Radha Motors and inaugurated by Mr. Manohar Shetty.

The idol has been prepared with a view to stress on the need to be environment-friendly while celebrating a festival. The idol, extending 12 ft in height and 7 ft in width, took them three days to make.

The eye-catching idol adorns the premises of Sai Radha Motors showroom in Udupi. It will be on public display for five days.
