Shivarajkumar, who arrived in Mangaluru for the pre-release event of Veda, visited Koragajja Kshetra for the first time today along with his wife Geetha and family members and offered prayers.

Shivaraj Kumar, who was here for the pre-release event of Veda to be held at Panambur Beach, said that he had visited Koragajjana Kshetra on the advice of actress Rakshitha Prem. “Today, I have come to Mangaluru because there is a Veda event. Rakshita had told me many a times about the Koragajja Kshetra. People are allowed to pray here without any pretensions. I enjoyed the simple way of praying to Koragajja by offering betel leaves and a shawl. It is God’s will to bless us and it is our duty to pray earnestly before God,” he said.

Rakshitha Prem had earlier come to Kuttaru and made a vow to Koragajja.
