Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh visited the Chamundeshwari temple in Mysuru on May 26. He offered prayers after the Karnataka High Court directed him to visit the shrine in connection with the Kantara mimicry case against him, officials said.
The visit to the shrine on top of Chamundi Hills comes in the wake of the Karnataka High Court directive.
The High Court last month had quashed proceedings against the Bollywood actor in the case related to his mimicry of the deity’s depiction in the film Kantara-1.
The court decision followed the actor’s submission of an unconditional apology.
The court had also accepted the revised affidavit submitted by his advocate and had asked him to visit the Chamundi deity to make amends for his conduct.
The controversy relates to remarks allegedly made by the actor at the Filmfare Awards event in Goa while speaking about the film ‘Kantara’. He is accused of imitating a Daiva and calling it ‘devil’.
Based on a complaint by a lawyer, who alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt, the ‘Dhurandhar’ actor was booked.
