The period began from the Ekadasi which fell on July 1, and will continue till the Kartika Ekadasi.

The Attarintiki Daredi star will be staying at his farmhouse for the entire time.

According to a source close to the actor, Pawan Kalyan will have only one meal a day during the four months. He will wear the sacred thread (Jandhyam) and perform regular pujas as well as sandhya vandanam.

The actor, known to be a devout person, had consulted an astrologer, and is performing the rituals for his well-being as per the latter’s advice, the source said.
