Overview
- A short behind‑the‑scenes clip from Bhagyashree’s Varanasi visit circulated online that showed her putting aside a kulhad lassi after a take and led some users to call the promotion "fake."
- On Tuesday she posted a new reel showing herself sipping the kulhad lassi and directly challenged the cropped footage by asking if critics were present during filming.
- Bhagyashree said she had been up since 3 a.m. for the mangala aarti, walked the Ganga ghats in intense heat, was upset with a cameraman for a missed shot, and that the drink was an energy booster.
- She stressed the posts were meant to spotlight small, local lassi vendors rather than serve as paid endorsements and noted that sweetened lassi may not suit people with diabetes.
- The episode highlights how brief, edited social clips can change the public story quickly and force public clarifications without any reported commercial or legal fallout so far.
