Subash, I'm ambivalent about this pic. Compositionally, it's an intriguing angle on a very lifelike statue; but was the utility pole included intentionally or was it unavoidable? It both adds some interest and distracts. Technically, a bit more light on the statue would be helpful, such as by using the "fill light" slider in Lightroom.
