Good to see them. But sometimes I feel these visits get too much media coverage. The temple's sanctity is for everyone, celebrity or not. The focus should be on devotion, not publicity.

So many film people visiting lately! Maybe there's a new film shooting nearby? Regardless, Lord Venkateswara's blessings are for all. Om Namo Venkatesaya.

My family has been going for generations. It's nice when public figures also share this tradition. Maybe it encourages younger fans to connect with our culture. 🕉️
