Spiritual preacher and singer Jaya Kishori recently faced criticism for carrying a Dior bag worth over ₹2 lakh while promoting detachment from materialism to her followers. The 29-year-old Hindu preacher was seen with a customized Dior tote at an airport, sparking backlash online.
A look at the Dior website reveals the “Dior Book Tote” she carried is crafted from cotton with a “cotton and calfskin” lining, raising further controversy due to the use of leather.

Social media users expressed disapproval of Kishori’s actions. X user Veena Jain commented, “Spiritual preacher Jaya Kishori deleted her video where she was carrying a Dior bag worth ₹210,000. She preaches non-materialism and calls herself a devotee of Lord Krishna. One more thing: Dior makes bags using calf leather.” Another user remarked, “She tells people not to be materialistic, yet she uses a luxury bag over ₹2 lakh. Many preachers exploit religion for profit and luxury.”
Several X users also highlighted other high-end items she owns, like a Rolex watch. Some pointed out the contradiction, noting how she advises followers to lead a simple life while using expensive accessories. The leather used in the bag drew further criticism, as some felt it contradicted her spiritual teachings about reverence for cows.
Born on July 13, 1995, in Kolkata, Jaya Kishori shares that she was drawn to spirituality early on. She is well-known today as a spiritual speaker, singer, and motivational figure who advocates for religiosity and simple living.
