The statement added that due to health issues, the artist could not personally oversee the painting of the statue. “If any errors remain, we will review and repaint Zubeen Da’s face to ensure accuracy,” the company said.

Jagya Construction also noted that the appearance of the statue can differ when viewed in photographs compared to seeing it in person.

The statement concluded with a tribute: “Thank you — Jai Zubeen Da.”
