Bahubali-themed Durga pandal recreates Mahismati Kingdom

The Durga Puja pandal at Sreebhumi is a major attraction for pandal-hoppers this year.

This year Sreebhumi Sporting club in Kolkata has decorated their pandal in the theme of Bahubali. The palace of Mahishmati, the ancient kingdom portrayed in the Bahubali series, has been recreated by the club.
With Bahubali 2 being a blockbuster hit, the puja organisers hope their theme will attract large number of pandal hoppers.

The pandal has a massive gate where an elephant stands a top pedestals with its trunk raised. Climbing up its head along the trunk will be Amarendra Bahubali, as seen in the sequel's posters and the opening sequence. While the elephant will be in LED, the Bahubali figure will be of fibre.  Visitors will make their way through the feet of the elephant.


Eight more Bahubali-themed light pillars will guide them to the pandal. Paul has chosen four scenes that he wants to portray-Sivagami raising newborn Mahendra above water as she floats along the mountain stream, Amarendra and Devsena practising archery side by side, Mahendra carrying the gigantic Shivalinga and Mahendra standing astride two on rushing bulls.


"This year we made our pandal based on Bahubali II Maheshmati Samrajya theme," says Alok Dutta, the organiser. "The theme is designed by Romeo of Kolkata; the idol is made by Pradip Rudra Pal And the lighting is done by Chandannagar's Babu Pal."




"The jewelleries are worth Rs. 10 crore," she adds. "Senco Gold has sponsored the jewellery of the goddess this year. On the first day Smt. Mamata Banerjee came to visit. We have our inauguration today, and today we will have Jhulan Goswami from Women's Cricket Team and the priest from Puri. The estimated cost of this pandal is almost Rs. 1.5 crore."

Happy Durga puja to you all!!!
