At the Renuka-Yellamma temple at Malkajgiri, this painting shows the goddess blessing her devotee, a Baindla man of the low caste Madiga community. Madigas are among the chief worshippers of the goddess. Madiga women are entrusted with the task of offering bonam (food), and Madiga men play the dappu at the festivals dedicated to her. The dappu shown here is the chief musical instrument of the Madigas. Digital Photograph, Joe Christopher, Hyderabad, 2009.
