==Description==
The parai is a frame drum about 35 centimeters in diameter. It consists of a shallow ring of wood, covered on one side with a stretched cow hide that is glued to the wooden frame. The preferred wood is neem wood although other types may be used. The shell is made up of three separate pieces of wood each in the shape of an arc. These pieces are held together by three metal plates. The parai is played with two sticks: one long and thin flat bamboo stick (approx. 28 cm) called 'Sundu Kuchi'〔http://www.vikatan.com/new/article.php?module=magazine&aid=102105〕 and one short and thick stick called 'Adi Kucchi'〔http://www.vikatan.com/new/article.php?module=magazine&aid=102105〕 that can be made from any variety of wood (approx. 18 cm)
