SABARIMALA: It is not often one comes across a person, especially a young adult, who trekked Sabarimala more than 18 times. The story of Adrithi can be surprising in this context as she visited Sabarimala for the 50th time with just one day left for her 10th birthday. Adrithi trekked the Sabarimala hills and performed darshan with her father Abhilash Mani of Kotheth House in Ezhukone on Wednesday evening.

Adrithi came to the shrine for the first time when she was nine months old. She then frequently visited Sabarimala during pilgrimage and monthly pujas. Before this time, she took the Pullumedu route in the Malayalam month of Dhanu and performed darshan. Adrithi reached Sannidhanam yesterday after 'Pettathullal' in Erumeli. She is a 4th class student of Sree Narayanaguru Central School in Ezhukone.
