Puri, Nov 3 (UNI) Renowned sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik has crafted a stunning sand sculpture at Puri Beach to congratulate the Indian Women’s Cricket Team on winning the 2025 World Cup.
The artwork bears the message “Congrats! Bharat ki Nari Shakti”, celebrating the strength, spirit, and achievements of Indian women.
