A jobless Tooting man has turned his life around by travelling to the subcontinent to become an Indian Goddess.

Now thousands of Hindus believe Steve Cooper can cure infertility as a reincarnation of Goddess Bahuchara Mata - who according to legend castrated her husband because he preferred acting as a woman.

According to The Sun, pilgrims flock to the remote jungle temple to be blessed by the 32-year-old.

Steve, who now calls himself Pamela, is known by his followers as Prema - which means Divine Love in Hindi.

He lives among 80 eunuchs at the temple and eats a strict vegetarian diet and has few possessions.

And according to Steve he's much happier now then when he was living in a tiny Tooting flat.

The temple of Bahuchara Mata is located in Shankhalpoor in Gujarat, India. This holy place is today known as Bahucharaji.
