Bhagyashree’s statement on Kashi Yatra
Mumbai: Actress Bhagyashree has responded to the criticism on promoting local food items during her visit to Mahadev’s city Kashi. He said that supporting local foods and vendors helps them, and some people are creating controversy without proper information.
Bhagyashree shared a video on social media, in which she is seen enjoying Banarasi Lassi in Kulhar. She told that she attended Mangala Aarti from 3 am in the morning and after this, this Lassi became a great source of energy for her while roaming on the Ganga ghats in the summer.
He wrote in his post that he liked the taste of dry fruits added to Lassi. Bhagyashree also said that choosing sweet or salty lassi is a matter of personal preference. Sweet lassi may not be the right choice for diabetic patients, but curd is rich in calcium, protein and probiotics, while sugar or jaggery provides energy and water keeps the body hydrated. It was a perfect drink for them in the 40 degree temperature.
Bhagyashree also reacted to the viral video, saying that she only promoted Lassi but did not drink it. She said, “Were you present there? Did anyone hear me saying that Lassi is too sweet and I will not drink it? Sharing half information and incomplete video is the real fraud.”
He further said, “No one makes money by promoting local food. It only supports local food and small vendors. It is shameful that some people find negativity even in such simple things. Your unnecessary criticism is insignificant in a holy place like Kashi.”
Recently, a video of Bhagyashree at a local lassi seller in Varanasi went viral on social media. After this, some people claimed that they did not drink Lassi after the shooting and attributed this to the high sugar and fat content in it. Mixed reactions were seen on this on social media. Some people questioned her endorsement, while many users defended her, saying that everyone can have their food preferences.
