Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez was recently spotted offering prayers at the Mahakaleshwar Temple, one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva, located in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. The visit, which occurred recently, has garnered attention, with videos and images circulating on social media.

Fernandez's visit reflects a growing trend of celebrities seeking spiritual solace and connecting with their roots amidst their busy schedules. The Mahakaleshwar Temple is a revered Hindu shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva and attracts devotees from all over the world. It is known for its unique Bhasma Aarti, a ritual where the deity is adorned with ashes.

During her visit, Fernandez participated in traditional prayer ceremonies and sought blessings from the priests. Dressed in traditional attire, she was seen with a humble demeanor, immersing herself in the spiritual ambiance of the temple. While details about the specific rituals she performed are still emerging, it is understood that she offered prayers for her well-being and success.

This isn't the first time Fernandez has been seen visiting temples. In April 2025, she visited the Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai with Maye Musk, the mother of Elon Musk. That visit marked one of Fernandez's first public appearances after the death of her mother, Kim. She described the experience as "beautiful" and noted that Maye Musk's book had taught her that age is just a number and shouldn't define one's dreams.

On December 30, 2025, Fernandez revisited her alma mater, the Sacred Heart School in Bahrain, where she received a warm welcome.

Fernandez has several projects lined up for 2025, including Welcome To The Jungle and Housefull 5, both co-starring Akshay Kumar. She was also recently seen in Fateh, opposite Sonu Sood, and will appear in a dance number in Ajay Devgn's Raid 2.
