Chhath Puja 2024: Bigg Boss OTT fame Manisha Rani trolled for performing Chhath rituals
Manisha Rani, the?Bigg Boss OTT 2?sensation, is back in the spotlight¡ªbut this time, it¡¯s not for her wild antics on reality TV. Instead, it¡¯s her ¡°I¡¯m ready for Chhath Puja" photoshoot that has the internet buzzing. Yes, you read that right¡ªChhath Puja. But here¡¯s the catch: Manisha¡¯s not married, and yet, she¡¯s rocking sindoor like it¡¯s her daily accessory. And of course, the internet had opinions.
Manisha Rani celebrates Chhath Puja
In a series of stunning Instagram pictures, Manisha, dressed in a gorgeous sari with a nose ring and a maang tikka, holding a soup full of prasads, and celebrating Chhath Puja. Her caption screams love for the tradition, ¡°Chhath Puja is the love of us Biharis. Happy Chhath to all.¡± Cute, right? Well, not for everyone.

The comments are divided. Some people are ¡°obsessed¡± with her beauty, showering her with praise like ¡°May Chhathi Maiya fulfill all your wishes,¡± while others are not holding back. ¡°Are you married though?¡± they ask, raising an eyebrow at the sindoor situation. Because, if we¡¯re keeping a note of everything, Chhath Puja is a festival for married women. So, people are basically dragging her for ¡®mocking¡¯ the festival and being all kinds of disrespectful, especially with that sindoor game.
Is this a photo-op gone wrong or a genuine religious gesture? Some are buying it as a photoshoot for Day 3 of Chhath (aka Sandhya Arghya, when people worship the setting sun), which Manisha posted yesterday. But still¡ªwhere¡¯s the respect for tradition? Is this just another stunt for clout, or is she really embracing the culture? You decide.
About Manisha Rani
Manisha, known for her rise from a middle-class background in Bihar to fame on?Bigg Boss OTT 2?and her victory as a wild-card contestant on?Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11, has always been a bit of a showstopper. She¡¯s now facing her biggest online backlash yet, thanks to her latest Chhath Puja moment.
Chhath Puja 2024
This year, Chhath Puja started on November 5, and today is the Sandhya Arghya, the third day of this four-day festival. Tomorrow brings the grand finale with Usha Arghya, and while Manisha¡¯s not married, her festive flair might just make her the new ¡°it girl¡± of Chhath Puja... or the new ¡°controversy queen.¡± Either way, the internet is here for it.
