When it comes to 'Bhakti', Tollywood stays atop all the other filmmaking industries of India. Though there is some tough competition from guys like Superstar Rajnikanth, comparatively we have a large number of divine believers. Every year most of our star heroes and directors transform themselves into the mode of saving God by taking some 'deeksha'. With 'Ayyappa' deeksha being the most popular one, Bhavani, Anjaneya, Shirdi Sai deekshas follow.

Another side of the coin is that how many of these star heroes follow the disciplines of those deekshas rightly. The first one this year to take certain 'Deeksha' is Realstar Srihari. It seems that our realstar is not following the path for getting enlightened, perfectly. The on-screen macho was spotted wearing 'Chappals' in the uniform of Deeksha and lighting the lamp to inaugurate a function. Generally, a common person follows celebrities in many ways, imitating their behavior and style. Industry folks felt that people like these 'fake' bhakti stars are indirectly spoiling the age old customs and traditions of particular religions.
