Hi Nitin , welcome to this forums
nice work with the 3D model, but the image looks flat, and the composition does not help the image either, you need a more dynamic camera angle to make it look more natural ,maybe a wider lens will make it look bigger and more dramatic , perspective might be wrong as well
you need to work with one real photographic exposure, maybe a moon light could help you define shapes with highlights and shadows,you can take advantage of the highlights in your source images to make it work as moon light /highlights/rim light in your elements and that will remove the flat effect, I know real life is like that sometimes but you are trying to achieve a cinematographic effect here, also the torches light looks too CG, all of them are the same size, color and intensity , the lit surfaces look smooth with no specular or texture or bump over the surface, making the effect look fake
you did a good job with painting the snow over the roof tops, that same attention to detail should be seen in the image in general
hope this helps
