A recent viral video features a man excitedly taking a selfie with pop star Selena Gomez. After thanking her for the moment, he turns to her and requests her to chant, “Jai Shree Ram.”
“Say Jai Shree Ram,” he prompts, but Selena looks visibly confused. The man attempts to clarify, saying, “India’s best slogan—Jai Shree Ram.” Ignoring his request, the Grammy-winning singer politely replied with, “Aww, thank you, honey.”
The video was shared by Pallav Paliwal on Instagram, accompanied by the caption, “One of our followers met Selena Gomez, and she said ‘Jai Shree Ram’ on the occasion of Diwali.”
Paliwal claims that the video was recorded during the auspicious event of Diwali. However, it appears to have actually been filmed at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, which can be identified by Gomez’s stylish attire typical of such events.
As the video circulated, it quickly garnered millions of views on social media. Nevertheless, reactions were largely negative, with many viewers describing the encounter as uncomfortable or even embarrassing for both parties involved.
