An Odisha-based miniature artist has built 5-inch replicas of Lord Jagannath's chariot, featuring detailed neem wood carvings of Lord Jagannath, Devi Subhadra, and Lord Balabhadra that measure under an inch each. The creator, L Eswar Rao, noted that he spent a week constructing the chariots from areca nut leaves. He expressed his hope that Lord Jagannath continues to bestow his blessings upon everyone.
