The RSS is a Hindu nationalist volunteer organization founded in 1925 by K. B. Hedgewar in Nagpur. It describes itself as a cultural organization focused on character-building, discipline, and national unity. The RSS operates through daily local branches called shakhas, where volunteers engage in physical training, drills, and ideological discussions. It promotes the concept of Hindutva, emphasizing India's cultural heritage. The RSS is ideologically linked to several affiliated bodies collectively known as the Sangh Parivar, including the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). It has played a significant role in India's social and political landscape.

Talking about Shilpa, she will be seen in 'KD: The Devil', directed by Prem. The film also stars Dhruva Sarja in the titular role, alongside Sanjay Dutt, V. Ravichandran, Ramesh Aravind, Reeshma Nanaiah, Jisshu Sengupta, and Nora Fatehi.

She was last seen in 'Sukhee' by Sonal Joshi in her directorial debut. It told the story of a Punjabi housewife Sukhpreet "Sukhee" Kalra, who, sick of her routine existence, travels to Delhi to attend her high school reunion.

Interesting to see a Bollywood star at an RSS event. While I respect everyone's right to their opinion, I hope the focus remains on the cultural and service aspects of the organization, not divisive politics. The centenary is a milestone, for sure.

Bhagwat ji's leadership has indeed been firm. The shakhas instill great discipline in youth. Whether one agrees with the ideology or not, their grassroots work in character building is commendable. Jai Hind!

As an observer of Indian politics, the RSS's influence is undeniable. Celebrity endorsements like this are fascinating. It shows how cultural and political spheres intersect in India. The 100-year journey is historically significant.

With due respect to Shilpa Shetty, I feel celebrities should be careful. Praising any political organization's chief can alienate sections of their fanbase. India is diverse. Better to stick to acting sometimes. Just my two paise.

My grandfather was a swayamsevak. The discipline and patriotism I learned from him come from those shakha values. Happy 100 years to the RSS! It's more than politics; it's about serving Bharat Mata. 🇮🇳
