Locals in Madhya Pradesh’s Burhanpur dig up fields around 15th century fort looking for hidden treasure depicted in Chhava movie

Bhopal: The administration in Madhya Pradesh’s Burhanpur district has started a probe after several people dug land around Asirgarh fort searching for hidden treasure, an official said on Saturday.

According to sources, people arrived in large numbers at the 15th-century fort, around 20 km from the district headquarters, over the last couple of days following rumours about a hidden treasure allegedly sparked by a depiction of the fort in Vicky Kaushal-starrer “Chhava”.

#Chhava movie showed that Mughals looted Gold and treasure from Marathas and kept it in the Asirgarh Fort, Burhanpur, MP.

After watching the movie, locals flocked to the spot with digging tools, metal detectors and bags to dig up the treasure and take it home.
