Actor Arjun constructing Hanuman temple in Gerugambakkam

The construction of the monolithic Hanuman temple in Gerugambakkam is going on at a steady pace and I’m sure it will be one-of-its-kind. The statue of the deity is in a sitting posture and weighs around 160 tonnes. It will be installed in a fortnight’s time.

The Single stone statue is in 28 feet height and 12 feet width with the thickness of 7 feet…"

The actor has allocated one acre of land in Peru estate for this idol. Ashok Gudiger, a Bangalore based sculpture artist designed the temple and statue. In this Temple, the statue shows Hanuman in sitting posture. The sitting posture of Hanuman statue is first of its kind in India.
