The former Indian left-arm pace bowler offered prayers with Vedic mantras along with his wife Sagarika Ghatge. The couple spent nearly 30 minutes in the temple.

Khan sought the blessings of the goddess and the priest.

"I felt good coming here. I will visit again if the goddess blesses us," Khan told media persons.

According to a priest of the temple, Khan had arrived in Ranchi to participate in a programme along Sagarika.
