Bangalore (Jan.16): Perhaps when the name KS Chitra is mentioned, Kannadigars remember the melodious songs she has sung. KS Chitra, who has sung more than 25 thousand songs in various Indian languages, is now at the center of controversy. The reason for that is the post he shared on social media. On January 22, the Prana pratshapana program of Sri Ram Mandir will be held in Ayodhya. At this time, the devotees had posted a video asking them not only to recite the Rama mantra, but also to celebrate this by lighting five lamps in their homes. After posting this video, there was outrage against him in Kerala, where there are more leftists and communists. 'KS Chitra should understand that the mosque there has been demolished and a temple has been built,' he told them. Chitra deleted the video from her social media page after a lot of outrage was expressed for her video.
On Monday, he posted his video saying that the people of the country should celebrate the celebration of Ram Mandir Prana pratishapana. In a video posted before this, he had mentioned that he had obtained the spell of Sri Rama Mandir in Ayodhya. After the leftist and communist brigade attacked KS Chitra, a lot of people stood in support of the legendary singer who has spent 45 years in the music industry.
The writer criticized Indu Menon, KS Chitra, who demolished the mosque and built the temple as a sign of mutual hatred. You can argue that there was a temple there. Chitra can be asked if she does not have freedom of speech. But, in my opinion, why is this being politicized? Why are you glorifying the genocide that killed so many innocent people? In such a place no matter how much you chant the name of Rama, Rama and Vishnu will not come, even if you light five or lakhs of lamps, no light will fill your mind. The world believed that it was a Koil (nightingale), but you wrote that it was indeed proved to be a fake nightingale. Singer Suraj Santhosh also took to Instagram to express his outrage over KS Chitra's video.
It seems that she has forgotten that the mosque was demolished and the temple was built. One after another our icons are breaking down. Should we see more Chitras waiting to show their true colours? He has written that.
Singer G Venugopal is now supporting Chitra, Chitra has not been involved in any controversies so far. Venugopal wrote, “I am saddened by the posts on social media that insult him and make him different. She has not made any political statement. For the last 44 years, only songs have been like that. On the Ayodhya issue, she wrote that she has only devotion to the temple.
We may not agree with them, but why shouldn't we forgive them? We do not have any revolutionary's house where he is not told to recite Rama Japa in the evening, go to church every Sunday, pray five times a day. You may disagree with them. However, he has a great place in the music world. My only request is that you write that you should not hurt her for any reason.

Theft at actress Shobhana's house: Why did the actress withdraw the complaint despite being caught?
As the Shobhana attack intensified, CPI(M) state secretary M V Govindan said that artists are Kerala's wealth, saying, “It is only natural that dignitaries from the social and cultural world participate in the Prime Minister's programme. We do not want to portray Shobhana as an artist related to the BJP.
