Gujarati art and cultural influence was prominent in the presentation of Maa Durga
The pandal had a mix of Warli, Phad and Gond styles intermixed with each other. Here is an innovative shot where you can catch a glimse of Durga through the artistic mesh...
The lake of Dumdum Park Tarun Sangha was a symbolic resemblance to Narmada and a group of pujaris were offering their prayers to Narmada.
Great resemblance to Gurjarati style

The ceiling in the centre of the pandal. The level of details is mesmerizing. This is typical Amar Sarkar style.
Every wall was a canvas of detailed Warli paintings...
An innovative way of demonstrating Gond style...Instead of two dimensional painting, a three dimensional style was incorporated...

When a pandal is created with this kind of thinking, light plays an important role. Brilliant use of light played hide and seek across the entire structure.
There was an importance given to life and the thought of Narmada providing happiness to life. So one could see happy people involved in celebration, music across the banks of Narmada. The background music made the imagination apt.
Happy people busy in their celebration of festivals...
Even the animals have joined the party....Narmada is provider of happiness to everyone...
The next four photos are to show the geometric symmetry of the structure...Any architect will be surprised to see that this level of structural brilliance was done only for temporary celebration of a week.
Shot 2 to show the structural symmetry
Shot 3: Synergy of colours and alignment
Anyday this can be misunderstood as a permanent structure...
As expected lots of spectators have lined up to see Amar Sarkar's creation in Dumdum Park Tarun Sangha
