"“It is my good fortune that Baba Mahakal called me here. I had been trying to come for years.” - Sanjay Dutt"

Mumbai, Sep 25

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt sought divine blessings at the Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain and even attended the Bhasm aarti.

Videos showed the actor on Thursday morning sitting in the Nandi Hall of the temple and taking blessings by witnessing the Bhasma Aarti.

On visiting the temple, Sanjay said, “It is my good fortune that Baba Mahakal called me here. I had been trying to come for years.”

The actor added that he has “experienced divine energy directly.”

“May Baba Mahakal’s blessings always remain,” Sanjay said.

The Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga is dedicated to Shiva and is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, shrines which are said to be the most sacred abodes of Shiva. It is located in the ancient city of Ujjain in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India.

The presiding deity, Shiva in the lingam form is believed to be Swayambhu, deriving currents of power from within itself as against the other images and lingams that are ritually established and invested with mantra-shakti.

Madhya Pradesh has two Jyotirlingas, the second one, Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga, is situated about 140 km south of Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga.

The actor was last seen in Baaghi 4, an action thriller film directed by A. Harsha. The film stars Tiger Shroff, Sonam Bajwa and Harnaaz Sandhu. It is the fourth installment in the Baaghi film series. It is an unofficial remake of the 2013 Tamil film Ainthu Ainthu Ainthu.

He will next be seen in Dhurandhar, a spy action thriller film written, directed, and co-produced by Aditya Dhar. It also stars Ranveer Singh, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, and Akshaye Khanna, alongside Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi in supporting roles.

Set against the backdrop of a high-stakes intelligence operation, the narrative follows a covert agent navigating complex political conspiracies, national security threats, and personal dilemmas.

While it's nice to see celebrities visiting temples, I hope this isn't just for PR. True devotion matters more than publicity. That said, Mahakaleshwar is indeed one of India's most sacred places.

The architecture and spiritual significance of Mahakaleshwar Temple is fascinating. As someone interested in Indian culture, I'd love to visit Ujjain someday. The Jyotirlingas represent such deep spiritual heritage.

Baba Mahakal ki jai! 🚩 The Bhasm aarti at 4 AM is something else entirely. Sanjay Dutt is right about the divine energy - you can literally feel it in the air. More people should visit these ancient temples instead of foreign destinations.
