Pop singer Katy Perry posted a picture of Hindu Goddess Kali on her Instagram page and captioned it, “current mood”. Katy has always known to have admired Hindu traditions, customs and even married her ex-husband Russell Brand in Rajasthan. The 2010 wedding was based on typical Hindu rituals, complete with pheras and a pandit, who officiated the couple’s union as well. She also has a Sanskrit tattoo, “Anuugacchati Pravaha”, which means “Go with the flow”. So contextually speaking, the picture she posted reflects her current mood.
The hatred Katy received on the Instagram post was however balanced with fans who stood up for her choice of picture. For every negative comment on the post – there was a positive comment where fans applauded her interest in a different religion. Some even commended her knowledge about the religion in question.
While some warned Katy saying that she may lose followers on social media for the post. People trolled her for posting an Indian Goddess' picture, shaming her for doing so. Interestingly, Katy got married to stand-up comedian Russell Brand in Rajasthan in 2010. However, the couple split soon after that.
