Jaya Kishori, a well-known storyteller and motivational speaker, has recently found herself at the center of controversy following a viral video of her at an airport. In the footage, she can be seen in a white outfit, navigating the terminal while carrying several bags, including a luxury Dior bag priced at approximately ₹210,343. This revelation has ignited backlash from netizens who question her authenticity, given her frequent advice to followers to detach from worldly desires.
Critics are particularly vocal about the apparent contradiction between Kishori’s high-end purchase and her teachings, which emphasize simplicity and renunciation of material wealth. Social media users have also raised concerns about the ethical implications of her bag, noting her advocacy for cow protection while carrying a product potentially made from cowhide.
Born Jaya Sharma in Kolkata on July 13, 1995, Jaya Kishori is a prominent spiritual leader and religious singer known for her motivational speeches and devotional performances. She gained recognition for reciting sacred texts such as the Narayan Katha and Shiv Mahapuran, garnering a large following for her focus on spreading positivity and the teachings of Hinduism.
Following the video’s circulation, reactions have poured in from social media users. One user shared the video, criticizing her by saying, “This is Hindu religious preacher Mata Jaya Kishori. She is revered by millions… but here she is, carrying an expensive Dior bag possibly made of cowhide.” Another commenter pointed out her previous statements on renouncing material attachments, saying, “Her name is Jaya Kishori… see carefully her bag… and brand value.”
However, not all comments have been negative. Some defended her lifestyle choices, arguing that Kishori has clarified in past interviews that she is not a renunciate but a katha vachak, aiming to live a life similar to that of common people. One supporter stated, “What is the harm in enjoying one’s life?”
This incident highlights the complex relationship between public figures and their followers, particularly when their actions appear to conflict with their teachings. As the discussion continues, it remains to be seen how Jaya Kishori will address the concerns raised by her audience.
