Hindu devotees walk around and touch the shrine at the Chilkur Balaji Temple in Chilkur, about 30km west of Hyderabad, India on Nov 2, 2014. The temple, known as Visa God, has acquired a reputation that the deity here is particularly powerful in granting an visa. During the visit, the devotee goes through circumambulations of the inner shrine and makes a vow. If they get their visa, they return to the temple, and fulfill their vow, which is to walk 108 times around the temple.
