Bollywood Actor Akshay Kumar Visits Hindu Temple in Abu Dhabi
- Publish date: Tuesday، 02 May 2023 Last update: Monday، 16 December 2024
Indian actor Akshay Kumar has visited the under-construction Hindu temple in Abu Dhabi's Abu Mureikha area, taking part in a prayer ceremony, and placing a brick in the construction of the temple.
Kumar was amazed by the exquisite design and sculptures of UAE's first traditional, hand-carved Hindu temple.
He hailed the landmark BAPS Hindu Mandir as a beacon of "peace, love, and support from one human to another".
The actor, known for roles in Hindi-language action movies, was led into the 'Rivers of Harmony' exhibition, which offers a glimpse into the origins of the BAPS Hindu Mandir.
The temple, which is due to open in February, aims to be a symbol of harmony and peace as it welcomes people of all cultures and religions.
"Love can move mountains. You are creating history. It is a dream of dreams," he told the priests and volunteers who took him around the site.
