Kadapa, Apr 1: Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar offered prayers at the Ameen Peer dargah (Pedda dargah) in Kadapa on Thursday afternoon.

Akshay Kumar flew down here in a helicopter from the airport near Tirupati around 4 pm and spent about 45 minutes at the Ameen Peer dargah, locally known as Pedda dargah.

Akshay Kumar in Pedda Dargah “Not many would get an opportunity to come here. I am the privileged one. I am happy to come here,” the 42-year-old actor told reporters after paying obeisance.
