UPO MAKES MUSIC!

Did you know that the dried shell of the bottle gourd has long been used worldwide to make musical instruments because it is hollow and resonant.

It is commonly crafted into rattles, percussion instruments, and wind instruments such as the traditional Indian pungi, while in instruments like the sitar, the gourd is used as a resonating chamber rather than the main body.
