Rachin Ravindra's Grandparents Perform 'Nazar Utarna' Ritual To Ward Off Evil Eye, Video Goes Viral

Rachin Ravindra, a rising cricket talent, first caught the spotlight during the ODI World Cup in India, where he displayed exceptional skills. This young sensation hailing from New Zealand delivered an outstanding performance, amassing a total of 565 runs in 9 matches. What truly sets him apart are the three centuries and two scores exceeding fifty that he notched up during the tournament. In this remarkable sequence, the 23-year-old Rachin achieved a significant milestone, surpassing the record held by cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. While Sachin managed to score 523 runs in the 1996 World Cup, Rachin Ravindra now claims the top spot for the most runs scored in a single World Cup.

For the unversed, Rachin Ravindra is a New Zealand citizen with Indian heritage. His roots tie back to Bangalore, where his grandparents still reside. Rachin's father, Ravi Krishnamurthy, relocated to New Zealand less than four years ago and started a life there. Notably, Rachin's grandfather, Balakrishna Adyga, is a distinguished figure in the field of education.

During Rachin Ravindra's visit to Bangalore on the eve of the World Cup match, he made a stop at his maternal grandparents' home. It was a momentous occasion where the traditional ritual to ward off ill effect of evil eye was performed. This loving gesture aimed to ward off the evil eye and ensure the well-being of their grandson. The video capturing this heartfelt moment has become a sensation on social media, resonating with viewers far and wide.
