Prayers for success

Not many heroes like to wear the piety and religiosity on their sleeves. In fact, most of them like to be discreet about the whole thing.
Mahesh Babu, too, would have preferred that.
But being a popular persona has its downside and Mahesh would have understood that very well as he made a visit to Tirupathi and Kalahasthi.
The young hero's new film Athadu is set for release next month.
Perhaps to propitiate the Gods on the eve of its release, Mahesh made a trip to these pilgrimage hot spots. Or perhaps he was making a trip as part of some other votive vow (he was recently married to Namratha).
Anyway, word quickly spread and many fans thronged the temples to catch a glimpse of their favorite hero.
It was also quickly revealed that Mahesh made a trip to Tirupathi before the release of Okkadu. The film went on to make history.
Now, prior to Athadu's release, he has again visited the temple.
Will it also make history?
