The statue was built by Shivamogga's Kashinath and his son Sridhar and several other sculptors, at a cost of approximately Rs. 10 million. The [statue] is designed such that it gets the sun light directly and thus appears sparkling." (Wikipedia)
    Whoops! Yet another case of a disappearing Deity . You can see the Shiva statue at these sites:
