I need help with my prop!!

[NumberIX]

Okay, I cosplay Demyx from KHII and I made a sitar (in all of it's six foot glory).
The sitar is cardboard with a painted construction paper outer layer.

My problem is this: My friend, being an idiot, bent the top of my sitar (below the three prong-thingies) and I am at a complete loss on how to get it to support itself again...

Any suggestions? *sits looks around anxiously*

Depending on how thick you have it, incert chopsticks (cheap disposable ones) into the cardboard as support. Or you can incert a thin dowlrod into the top of the prop.
