The historic Asgadh Fort, located in Burhanpur district of the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, became the center of a unique scene on Friday night, when hundreds of villagers began to dig the fort in search of treasury after watching Wiki Kaushal’s film ‘Chhawa’.
The scenes shown in the film convinced people that gold and silver treasures were buried inside the fort, after which they started excavating.
According to Indian media, the film ‘Chahaw’ shows that Mughal Raja Aurangzeb had hidden the treasury looted from the Maratha imperialism in the Asgadh Fort. After watching the film, the villagers became convinced that the story was based on fact, and they turned to the fort to search for the treasury.
It can be seen in the videos that went viral on social media that hundreds of people gathered near the fort at night and brought with them shields, metal detectors, flashlights and other tools. Videos can be seen digging people intensely and searching for treasures through metal detectors.
However, soon the police received reports of excavation in the fort. On the arrival of the police, the villagers fled, scared, and left the excavation tools and fled the scene.
According to police, at least 100 deep pits have been dug in the fort, which is harmful to historical heritage.
In the comments of videos that went viral on social media, consumers described the incident as “disappointing” and “incredible”. Many consumers have been surprised at people’s movements, while some have seen the effects of films as the consequences of real life.
This event reflects how films can have a profound impact on people’s minds. However, the need for the protection and protection of historical sites has also highlighted the incident.
The movie ‘Chahaw’ showed its effect not only on the screen but also outside the screen, but this time the result was a bit more unexpected!
