The original building of the church was later destroyed by Adil Shah\u2019s soldiers in 1578. The present building is a result of the architectural amalgamation over the years since 1594. The Neo-Gothic style is the most prominent part of the design features that we see in the church today. The most recent changes and inclusions are in the year 2010 with the long extention of prayer halls. The church has the pure white all around and the grottos look beautiful in gold tinge.
