At a glance this membranphone percussion instrument looks like a mridangam. It consists of a wooden cylinder with two skin heads on each side. The heads are tightened using laces. The instrument is hunged from the neck using cloth and is held horizontally and played using the palms. The beat is produced from both sides of the instrument. The one who plays the instrument should follow all the fasting which the temple priest performs.
