5 Celebs Who Have Temples Made By Their Fans

1. Sachin Tendulkar

He is called The God of Cricket in India. Sachin is undoubtedly the most popular and loved cricketer in the country. But, the title was taken wayy too seriously when fans decided to make his temple. Yup, there is a temple in the name of Sachin Tendulkar in a village in Bihar. The life-size statue is placed in a cricket academy that provides free-of-cost coaching. This temple surely encourages budding cricketers to follow their dreams.

2. Rajinikanth

His name reminds us of all the bad*ss movie scenes where he dodges bullets, beats the villain(s) like a boss and does all sorts of cool stuff. The superstar Rajinikanth doesn't just have fans, he has a cult that worships him. Before the release of one of his movies, the fans even poured milk on the posters. It has to be out of sheer love that the Thaliavva's fans established a Sahasra Lingam for his health and prosperity at Kotilingeshwara Temple in Kolar, Karnataka.
