Kottayam city in Kerala is hosting the ongoing Ecstasy Expo. One of the best attractions of the event is the replicas of the characters from a popular Hollywood film. The Ecstasy Expo is taking place in the Kottayam Nagampadam Maidan. Character replicas of one of the biggest and highest-grossing films of all time, Avatar, are one of the main attractions of the event. The brainchild behind the Ecstasy Expo is entertainment director Archa Unni, along with Palagal Productions. It is their first project, aimed to boost Kerala’s Tourism Sector.
