In response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call to clean temples across the country ahead of the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony in Ayodhya, actor Kangana Ranaut swept the floor of Ayodhya’s Hanuman Garhi Temple on Sunday.
Kangana arrived in Ayodhya earlier to attend the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ on Monday.
Speaking to ANI, the actor expressed, “I aim to inspire people to pick up the broom by actively participating in this cleanliness drive. The city has been beautified and has a festive look as we approach the inauguration day.”

Several images and video clips of the actor wielding a broom to clean the temple floor went viral on social media.
Kangana wore a red saree, tied her hair in a bun, and accessorized her look with heavy gold jewelry and a pair of black shades.
The actor also offered prayers at the temple.
The BJP launched the nationwide cleanliness drive at temples earlier this month, and it will continue until Monday, the day of the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony at the Ayodhya Ram temple.
Recently, actor Jackie Shroff also participated in the cleanliness drive.
Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cleaned the premises of the Kalaram Temple in Maharashtra’s Nashik, taking the lead in the Swachchata Abhiyan.
Visuals showed Prime Minister Modi with a mop and bucket, diligently mopping the temple floor.
The drive gained momentum after Prime Minister Modi encouraged fellow citizens to cleanse temples leading up to the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ event.
Several Union ministers and BJP leaders across states have actively carried forward the campaign.
Prime Minister Modi will perform the rituals around the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony, which will be officiated by a select complement of seers on Monday. (ANI)
