Influencer Triggers Temple 'Purification': Are Reels Hurting Reality?

A viral Instagram reel by influencer and former Bigg Boss Malayalam contestant Jasmin Jaffar has triggered a major controversy at Kerala's Guruvayur Sree Krishna Temple, prompting temple authorities to initiate a six-day purification ritual.

Jasmin filmed the video in the sacred pond of the temple, where she was seen dipping her feet in the water. The act drew sharp criticism from devotees and cultural groups, who cited violations of customs and an infringement on religious sentiments.
