Temple Built for Actress samantha in andhra pradesh Shocks Many; Journalist Cheyyar Balu Shares His Views

In a surprising and unusual display of admiration, a fan from Denduluru, andhra pradesh, has constructed a temple dedicated to popular actress samantha Ruth Prabhu. The temple, which features a bust-sized statue of the actress, was inaugurated on the occasion of her birthday, leaving many people across the state stunned by the fan's devotion.

The fan, whose name has not been publicly disclosed, has installed the statue near his home and performed a formal Kumbabhishekam (consecration ceremony) to sanctify the temple. Reports suggest that the fan's entire family worships the statue of samantha as a deity, offering daily prayers and expressing deep reverence.

Veteran journalist Cheyyar Balu addressed the incident on his YouTube channel, expressing disbelief over such a gesture in modern times. “A person from Denduluru, andhra pradesh, has built a temple for Samantha. He has consecrated it with a bust-sized statue of her and his entire family worships her. Where are we heading? On one hand, we are witnessing global conflicts and rapid advancements in science and technology, and on the other, we are still seeing such acts,” Balu remarked.

He questioned whether there was any personal connection between the fan and the actress. “Is this person related to Samantha? Is he a friend or a relative? Apparently not. He claims he worships her because she has done a lot of good. What good she has done, I’m not sure. But it is certainly surprising that our very own Pallavaram girl now has a statue in andhra pradesh,” he added.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu, who originally hails from tamil Nadu, earned widespread acclaim in the telugu film industry early in her career. Her popularity further grew after her marriage into the Akkineni family, one of the most prominent film families in Tollywood. Though her personal and professional life continues to make headlines, this temple dedication marks an unexpected and extreme expression of fan devotion.

The incident has sparked a mix of amusement, bewilderment, and concern among the public, reigniting conversations around celebrity worship and the boundaries of fandom in contemporary society.
