Kannada devotional daily soap Yediyuru Sri Siddhalingeshwara has completed fifty episodes successfully. The show is being aired on a leading Kannada general entertainment channel at a prime timeslot.
On the occasion of the completion of fifty episodes, the team took off from their shoot to celebrate the success of the show. The entire cast and the crew members of the show cut a delicious cake on the sets of Yediyuru Sri Siddhalingeshwara and had a gala time.
The devotional show is based on the life of a revered Sharan saint Yediyuru Sri Siddhalingeshwara, who travelled far and wide preaching the Veerashaiva faith (Shaivism).
He performed 12 years of penance at a garden (Thota) and hence, he is known as Thontada Siddalingeshwara Swamy. He headed the Murugi muth and had a large following of disciples.
