Bigg Boss Fame Priyanka Jain Apologizes to Devotees and TTD

Bigg Boss fame Priyanka Jain, along with her boyfriend Shivakumar, issued an apology to Tirumala devotees and the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD). They clarified that the video they recorded on the Tirumala pedestrian path was meant for fun and was not intended to hurt anyone’s sentiments. They stated that they did not foresee the video offending devotees and emphasized that they had no intention of disrespecting Tirumala's sanctity. Acknowledging their mistake, they requested everyone’s forgiveness through a video statement.

Recently, Priyanka and Shivakumar visited Tirumala for Sri Venkateswara Swamy’s darshan. On the Alipiri footpath, between the seventh milestone (a known area for leopard sightings) and the Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple, the duo recorded reels, pretending to flee from a leopard. Later, they clarified that there was no leopard and that the video was created in jest. Following this, devotees urged the TTD to take action against them, prompting the couple to issue their apology.
