Madhya Pradesh : The Shraddha Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao starrer Stree 2 has scripted history by becoming the highest-grossing Hindi film ever. The horror comedy film attracted audiences to houseful theatres ever since its release on August 15 and is now set to premiere on OTT. Just as the talk around the movie began to die out, the frenzy took over the festive time as well.

The whole county is currently soaked in the celebration of the nine-day Navratri . As a part of the festival, several pandals have been set up across the nation to worship the nine forms of Goddess Durga. Most pandals become city attractions due to their distinct theme and craft. One such pandal from Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh is not just attracting people from all over the city but has also gone viral on social media.

On October 8, a local area influencer and travel page from Jabalpur took to their Instagram account to share a glimpse of the Stree 2 theme Durga Puja pandal in the city. The pandal is set up in the Yadav Colony of the city, as per the page. In the video, one can see a large crowd of people queued up to be able to see the pandal.

Inside the pandal, the makers had recreated scenes from Stree 2. A man who appeared as the main villain in the film - Sarkata, could also be seen with a beheaded skull in one hand and a sword in another. An eerie atmosphere has been set up inside the pandal to stick to the horror theme.

The Stree 2 pandal on the occasion of Durga Puja comes in the backdrop of the film promoting women empowerment. In the Amar Kaushik directorial it is shown that the town of Chanderi is haunted by a sarkata (beheaded) villain who preys on modern, empowered women. The townspeople get concerned as more and more girls and women are abducted. To help combat the situation, a group of men led by Vicky (Rajkummar Rao), take the help of Shraddha Kapoor's character who fights off the demon and helps restore peace in the town.

Another reason for the Stree 2 pandal in Madhya Pradesh 's Jabalpur is the film's connection with the state. Several parts of the movie have been shot in the central state of India. Cities like Bhopal, Narsinghpur and Sehore feature in Stree 2. Additionally, many locals also played pivotal roles in the Shraddha Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao film.
