Presiding over this majestic setting is Goddess Shivani, portrayed with divine elegance. The blend of spiritual ambiance and architectural excellence has made this one of the must-visit destinations of Durga Puja 2025.

Intricate design and minute detailing of the pandal have fascinated the visitors.

“It is so nice. This is a unique idea and many people will appreciate it. Truly, it is marvellous. Visitors coming here can cast a glance upon the pandal and witness for themselves what a royal palace looks like,” a male visitor expressed to OTV.

Worth mentioning, Durga Puja (Dussehra) in Kolkata has always been a spectacle, but this year it is making waves with something truly extraordinary. The devotees and visitors are witnessing Goddess Durga in 3D format, not just a clay idol but a three-dimensional experience that blends tradition with cutting-edge visual art.

Bharat Chakra Sangha in Dum Dum has crafted this remarkable 3D pandal to symbolise how the divine power of Maa Durga reaches people across the world, transcending physical boundaries. The pandal merges spiritual energy with visual grandeur, offering an immersive and emotional journey for visitors.
