The sporting club completes its Golden Jubilee this year. Reportedly, it took the hard work of over 100 artisans in 60 days to finish the aesthetic pandal.

Twitter is in absolute awe of the unbelievable pandal. Here’s how people reacted to it.

I love that #DurgaPuja has always been about multiculturalism; about inclusivity, creativity, connecting, celebrating, love, food and fun. That's what it has always meant to me all my life. It's never been so much about religion and rituals. It's about coming together of people. https://t.co/5hGP9X3oDW

This is a masterpiece imo. The artwork and inner decoration looks fantastic. And this is why Durga Puja is among the greatest festivals because it can embrace cultures from different regions. People who celebrate don't get triggered and happily share joy. https://t.co/ysqDBEekkU

Need to go to Kalkatta during Pujo (but that would mean missing Amdavad's navratri 😭) https://t.co/iRIQLW9HEm

The Durga Puja pandals at Shree Bhoomi Sporting Club have always been grand. Last year they had Burj Khalifa themed pandal. On its 50th year they have themed it about St Peters Basilica (Vatican City). The craftsmanship & detailing looks so beautiful. Kudos to the artisans. https://t.co/KOt9KeM9mT
