Coinciding with the 25th day theatrical run of his latest hit film Bhairathi Ranagal, directed by Narthan, actor Shivarajkumar has paid a visit to the Tirumala Tirupati Temple. He, along with his wife Geetha, daughter Nivedita, producer KP Sreekanth and close family friends, visited the holy place.

As a mark of devotion and gratitude, Shivarajkumar and his wife offered prayers and tonsured their heads during the visit. This comes as the actor prepares to fly to Florida, USA, for a major surgery, part of his ongoing treatment for a health condition he has been managing for some time.

During the promotions of Bhairathi Ranagal, Shivarajkumar had opened up about his health. “Worry knocked at the door briefly, but with the strength of my family and doctors, it faded,” he revealed. Hinting at a crucial step ahead, he mentioned taking a short pause for recovery after completing his treatment.

“By the end of January, I’ll be back on my feet—there’s nothing to fear,” the actor conveyed with confidence.

Shivarajkumar's upcoming films include 45, which is gearing up for release and features him sharing the screen with Upendra and Raj B Shetty under the direction of Arjun Janya, produced by Ramesh Reddy. Shivanna is also part of A for Anand, directed by Srini, where he plays a pivotal role. Additionally, he is involved in Uttarakaanda, directed by Rohit Padaki, which recently wrapped up a schedule and is set to continue next year. The actor is also part of a Telugu project starring in Ram Charan's upcoming film.
