Adipurush’s cast has been visiting different places of worship to seek blessings for the success of their upcoming movie. Lead actor Prabhas was seen in Tirupati on Tuesday, offering prayers at the Venkateswara Swamy Temple. Following this, actress Kriti Sanon and director Om Raut were spotted at the Temple. However, a controversy arose when a video of the director and actress went viral.
In the viral video, Om Raut can be seen giving a goodbye kiss on Kriti’s cheek as she bids adieu to the director before getting in her car. This incident is not only garnering the attention of netizens but also authorities of the temple and other stakeholders.
Ramesh Naidu Nagothu, the BJP State Secretary in Andhra Pradesh commented on the incident in the now-deleted tweet, “Is it really necessary to bring your antics to a sacred place? Engaging in public displays of affection, like kissing and hugging, in front of the Lord Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Tirumala is deemed disrespectful and unacceptable.”
