It’s not uncommon in the Telugu states for fans to go the extra mile to prove their love for their favourite star. Samantha Ruth Prabhu joins the list of actors like Khusbhoo Sundar, Nayanthara, Nidhhi Agarwal and Sonu Sood who have fans going as far as building temples in their honour.
Tenali Sandeep, a native of Bapatla, has built a temple for his favourite star right on the premises of his home in a bizarre show of affection.
The fan built an open structure at the entrance of his home and has placed a bust of Samantha wearing a saree. He plans on unveiling it on her birthday. Apparently, its not just her filmography that inspired this move. He has never met her in person but he is a massive fan of Samantha, a member of Sandeep’s family told the press, adding, he admires her because she spends a lot of her earnings in providing healthcare to children through her foundation.
What’s more, reports state that when Samantha was diagnosed with myositis, the fan even visited religious places in Tirupati and Chennai in hope of her recovery. The actress, who will soon be seen in Kushi and Citadel, is yet to respond to the news.
