Om Banna temple, also known as ‘Bullet Baba Temple,’ is a temple with an odd history that can be found between Pali and Jodhpur, near the village of Chotila, on the NH65. This is the shrine dedicated to Om Banna, a passing traveler at his place, and his motorbike, a 350cc Royal Enfield Bullet. Located 50 km from Jodhpur and 20 km from Pali, this shrine is regularly visited by nearby villagers and devotees to pray for a safe journey, and because of its roots, it is a hotbed for visitors and travellers. This temple is especially common among enthusiasts in Royal Enfield.
The bullet of Om Banna is contained in a glass case inside the temple of Om Banna, which is at the site of the incident. Inside the temple, there is also a Bust of Om Banna. The tree into which Om Banna crashed still remains at the site, with devotees praying to it along with the statue and the motorcycle to ensure safe road travel. There are hundreds of devotees coming here every day from nearby villages to ensure that they are safe, and it is believed that travelers who do not stop by this temple to pay their respects are doomed to have a dangerous journey. The bike is filled with offerings in the form of flowers, prayer cords, and alcohol.
