<\/p>\nThis year, Wapuu Saa is all dressed up for the Udaipur WordCamp event!<\/p>\n
If you don’t know this guy. Here’s a quick hello!<\/p>\n
Wapuu Saa is our official mascot for\u00a0WordCamp Udaipur. This mischevious member of the Udaipur WordPress Community is the first one to get ready for the upcoming event.<\/p>\n
Just have a look at his cool turban and mustache\u00a0and this year Wapuu Saa has learned the skill to play Kamaicha too! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Rajasthan is a state of\u00a0rich culture and heritage. It\u2019s very well known for the unique attire. We wanted the same\u00a0traditional touch for our Wapuu. So, we\u00a0started exploring the design ideas.<\/p>\n
The Turban<\/p>\n
Starting from the top. A Turban, commonly known as\u00a0Pagari (\u092a\u0917\u0921\u0940) or Paagari(\u092a\u0917\u0921\u0940)\u00a0is worn by men and the style varies in different parts of the state.<\/p>\n
Pagari in desert areas is often loose and large to protect the head from extreme heat. Pagari \/ Turban is usually worn in a single color but on special celebrations, people wear a colorful Pagari just like Wapuu Saa is wearing.<\/p>\n
The Mustache<\/p>\n
Rajasthani men have a deep-rooted\u00a0tradition of maintaining glorious mustaches and our Wapuu Saa has made sure that he has a good lookin’ stache ready too. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
Kamaicha is a bowed string instrument from Rajasthan.\u00a0\u00a0It is one of the oldest bowed instruments in the world and is a key presence in Rajasthani folk music.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Wapuu Saa being a very avid learner has learned the art of playing a Kamaicha (\u0915\u092e\u0948\u091a\u093e) and you can see him posing with it as well.<\/p>\n
Behind the Kamaicha,\u00a0you can see Wapuu Saa pulling off dhoti and kurta (\u0927\u094b\u0924\u0940 \u0915\u0941\u0930\u0924\u093e). Dhoti Kurta also being the oldest traditional Rajasthani attire for men, Wapuu Saa decided to just go for it.<\/p>\n
\u201cSaa\u201d is commonly used to show love and respect to\u00a0someone and is a part of day-to-day conversations. Hence, we named our Wapuu as\u00a0Wapuu Saa.<\/p>\n
\u0916\u092e\u094d\u092e\u093e \u0918\u0923\u0940 \u0906\u092a \u0938\u092c\u0928\u0947| \u092e\u094d\u0939\u093e\u0930\u0947 \u0909\u0926\u092f\u092a\u0941\u0930 \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0906\u092a\u0930\u094b \u0938\u094d\u0935\u093e\u0917\u0924 \u0939\u0948 |<\/p>\n
