Nice gesture but I wish media would focus on more important issues than tracking every celebrity temple visit. Still, blessings from Lord Venkateswara are always good.
As an American who visited Tirumala last year, I can say it's one of the most peaceful experiences I've ever had. Happy to see celebrities from different fields seeking blessings there!
Harathi ki photo to daali but offering details nahi batayi... anyway, Tirumala is timeless. Every visit feels like home. Varalaxmi and Sarathkumar sir looking very blessed 🙏
Love how celebrities from all backgrounds visit Tirumala - actors, cricketers, badminton players. It's a unifying force for India. Hope they all got darshan smoothly.
Interesting to see the blend of tradition and modernity - celebrities posing for selfies at a temple. In Canada this would be unusual but in India it feels very natural!
Real devotion is in the heart, not in photo ops. But I'm glad they visited. Every pilgrimage is personal. Just hope the crowd management at Tirumala is handled well for regular devotees too.
