Durga Puja 2021: Pandal in Kolkata's Lake Town Replicates Dubai's Iconic Burj Khalifa

As the Durga Puja festival approaches closer, West Bengal gears up its preparations of decorating pandals and Durga idols. Every year, the people of Kolkata brainstorm into new themes, which are unique and innovative in their own way.

One such unique pandal has been built at Kolkata's Sreebhumi Sporting Club which has replicated Dubai's Burj Khalifa. The club has designed an iconic 145 feet pandal in the Lake-town based on the theme of Dubai's Burj Khalifa.

Sujit Bose, Sreebhumi Sporting Club president said, "Every year, we built the pandal in form of a replica of iconic buildings. Earlier, we had built it on the theme of Paris Opera, Kedarnath and Puri temples among others."

He further informed that the 145 feet tall Burj Khalifa pandal has special lighting arrangements to give it a majestic look in the night and around 250 workers have built this in two months.
