A video which went viral on social media showed the priest at the temple praying to Goddess Durga on Ms Murthy's behalf, seeking well-being of her son-in-law who recently became the first Indian-origin prime minister of the United Kingdom.
During her visit, Ms Murthy also interacted with students of Yashwantrao Rane Higher Secondary School at Baparde.
Sudha Murthy, the wife of billionaire businessman and Infosys founder Narayan Murthy, was caught up in controversy earlier this week when a video showed her bowing before Sambhaji Bhide, a controversial right-wing leader from Maharashtra.
