While the birthplace of Lord Sri Krishna is Mathura, Udupi is referred to as ‘Mathura of South India' and the famous Udupi Sri Krishna temple is renowned by devotees. Here, the idol is not seen directly, but through a 9 holed window called the Navagraha Kitiki.

In the Udupi Krishna form, Lord Krishna is depicted as a small boy or Balakrishna, young and innocent, holding a tall churning rod in his hand for churning butter. It is said that the arrival of Udupi Krishna in your home signifies that Lord Krishna is happy and he himself wants to come to your home. The good quality of brass and the brilliant workmanship makes the idol extremely eye-catching and makes it stand out in any setting!
