These photographs are the latest in a series of controversies that Shilpa Shetty has been having with holy sites.
The first was during a shoot during which temple authorities accused the actress of entering the Gopinath Deb temple of Sakhigopal near Puri, Orissa, with her shoes on. An FIR was later filed against Shilpa by the officials.
The actress, however, was successful in averting that disaster after she lashed out at what she described as 'making scapegoats of celebrities'. The police too, refused to pursue the matter any further after it was revealed that Shilpa didn't even enter the temple premises during the shoot at Puri.
But no sooner was she out of the frying pan, blessings have come in the form of controversy. Pictures from Shilpa's time at a temple in Powai, Mumbai, show a swamiji delivering blessings in a manner that left the moral police fuming.
Many are familiar with the unfortunate Richard Gere episode which took the tabloid press by the storm. But Shilpa has vowed to take the fight head on. In a reaction, the actress lashed out: "What was obscene in that? Don't people kiss their daughters or sons?"
