A team from Mumbai captured various activities undertaken by tourists staying at Deogarh’s homestays. The camera recorded every aspect that could help elevate Deogarh’s global profile—from the Gond rulers' fort and centuries-old stepwells (built with remarkable foresight) to the Maa Chandi Temple, tribal folk culture, orange orchards, and scenes of fresh vegetables being harvested from fields and cooked on traditional hearths.

Balram Rajput, Nodal Officer for the District Archaeology, Tourism, and Culture Council, stated that 12 homestays have been established in Devgarh through the collaboration of the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board and the 'Back to Village' organization, attracting tourists from both within the country and abroad.
