Rishabh Pant Takes Blessings From Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj; Netizens Question Use Of Left Hand In Viral VIDEO

Mumbai, December 11: A video has surfaced on social media in which Indian wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant is seen taking blessings of Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj. The video of the heartwarming moment is going viral on social media and the video shows that Rishabh Pant bends down respectfully while the Swami places his hand on the cricketer's back and head to bless him.

However, some internet users have pointed out that Swami ji appears to bless Rishabh with his left hand, which has sparked discussion on social media. The users are curious to know if it is appropriate to give blessings with left hand. They are questioning about the gesture of the Swami.

The video was shared on social media with the caption, "India's greatest and number one Test wicket keeper batsman Rishabh Pant taking blessings from Swami kailashgirinand Giri Ji."

One of the users said, "Left hand blessings is it."

However, several other users are against the analysis and are saying that blessing, no matter which hand, should be respected.

Rishabh Pant, who has been making public appearances after his remarkable recovery and his recent leg injury, was seen smiling and interacting warmly with the Swami ji.

The short video clip has now spread widely on social media and the internet users are giving mixed reactions to it.

Rishabh Pant was part of India's squad for the recent ODI series against South Africa, marking his return to the side after a long gap. However, despite being a part of the team, the wicket-keeper batsman did not feature in any of the matches as the management chose other combinations throughout the series.
