Arindam GhosalMovies always leave a deep impact on the audiences, and so does the onscreen performers. At times, the impact is so huge that some fans tend to dedicate everything to their heroes and heroines with an intent to impress them. For them, the movie releases of their stars are no less than landmarks. These highly influenced individuals often go that extra mile in proving their worth to their idols.

Here the fans have treasured the shoes he wore in Agneepath and kept it on the chair he sits on in Aks and sing praises of the superstar with a customised aarti. The walls are inscribed with the words ‘Jai Shri Amitabh’ as is the saffron cloth that the pujari wraps himself in.
