A spiritual visit to the Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple has turned into a viral talking point for the wrong reasons. On Wednesday, April 1, 2026, superstar Akshay Kumar offered prayers in Ujjain alongside veteran actress Dimple Kapadia. While the visit was intended to seek blessings for the upcoming release of Akshay’s horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla, it was the presence of Tiger Shroff – and the media’s total indifference toward him – that stole the headlines.

The Sidelined Action Star

Despite being one of Bollywood’s top action heroes, Tiger Shroff appeared to be the “invisible” member of the group. While the paparazzi and temple officials mobbed Akshay and Dimple, Tiger was seen standing quietly in the background, often navigating the temple corridors without a single camera lens turning his way. Netizens were quick to point out the irony, as Tiger was seemingly treated like a commoner during the high-profile Bhasma Aarti.

The clips have triggered a wave of trolling on Instagram and X. “Tiger is giving major background dancer energy here,” one user joked. Others noted that since Tiger isn’t part of the Bhooth Bangla cast, the media simply didn’t recognize his relevance to the outing. However, his fans defended the move, praising Tiger’s humility for staying in the shadows while his seniors took the lead.

Directed by Priyadarshan, Bhooth Bangla is set to release on April 10, 2026. Akshay Kumar, a devout follower of Lord Shiva, shared that he prayed for the “entire country’s progress” during the visit. Tiger, meanwhile, remained a silent supporter throughout the trip, proving that even a “Chote Miyan” can sometimes be overshadowed by the legends.
