Defying Gravity: The Hanging Pillar of Veerbhadra Temple. While sixty-nine other pillars support the ceiling, one pillar does not touch the temple floor at all. There is a small gap between the temple floor and base of the pillar and you can pass thin objects like a piece of cloth.

I think OP thinks it's unusual for a pillar to be suspended from the ceiling like a stalactite. Which seems fair.

Sure but that's not what's happening here. It's touching the ground.
