Fan builds temple for Samantha Ruth Prabhu; celebrates her 38th birthday in front of her busts and feeds orphans

Samantha Ruth Prabhu celebrated her 38th birthday yesterday (April 28), and now pictures and videos of a devoted fan named Tenali Sandeep are going viral on the internet. He has built a temple in honour of Samantha in Alapadu village, Bapatla district, Andhra Pradesh. In the video, he is seen cutting cakes in front of the temple, where he gathered with a group of children cheering for the 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' actress.

The entrance of the temple is decorated with wooden boards and green floral arrangements. Two busts of the actress are placed at the centre of the temple—one in a golden hue and another depicting her wearing a green and red saree. The space was adorned with vibrant flowers and decorative streamers for the occasion.

Sandeep about the temple
Speaking to the media, Sandeep said, “My name is Tenali Sandeep. I hail from Alapadu gramam in Bapatla, Andhra Pradesh. I am a huge admirer of Samantha garu. I have been celebrating her birthday for three years now. I also built this temple back then. Every year, I ensure I feed children and cut a cake on the day. Her philanthropy inspires me, and I want to follow in her footsteps.”

In 2023, he had also made headlines for the temple, which at the time featured only one bust of Samantha. He has now installed two.
Even Bollywood icons like Amitabh Bachchan and Sonu Sood have temples named after them.
