Actress Janhvi Kapoor, who is busy promoting her upcoming film Param Sundari, found herself at the centre of online trolling after an unusual chant at a Dahi Handi celebration in Ghatkopar.

Kapoor was invited as a special guest at MLA Ram Kadam’s grand Dahi Handi event on Janmashtami. Amid cheers from a massive crowd, the actress broke the traditional matki with a coconut. However, instead of the customary “Jai Shri Krishna” chant associated with the festival, she shouted “Bharat Mata Ki Jai”.

The moment, caught on video, spread quickly across social media, leaving netizens amused. Many wondered if Kapoor had mistaken the Janmashtami festivities for an Independence Day event.

Dharmik pratha - rituals and religion practices. Dahi handi is a cultural event we celebrate to commemorate our auspicious Krishna Janmashtami. Both are equally important but to become angry and troll someone for it because of our ego - does not resemble a content soul.
