Sudha
Chandran started the new year with the blessings of Goddess Vaishnodevi. The actress hosted a Mata Ki Chowki, which was attended by family members and industry friends. On the evening of January 3, the veteran entered a deep state of devotional trance and got emotional. In an exclusive interview with Zoom, Ms Chandran said it is difficult to express the experience in words. “It is a moment everyone wants to live in,” she shared, before adding, “Maa Shakti aapke andar aake voh energy de rahi hai (Goddess Shakti enters your body, gives you energy). I am one of those blessed souls aur mere zariye logon ko voh blessings mil rahe hai, it is the happiest moment in my life.”
Sudha Chandran reacts to trolls
Sudha, who joined the cast of
Noyonthara in December 2025, hit back at trolls who termed her spiritual trance ‘fake’ and ‘drama’ on social media. She told us, “I am not here to justify. I have my perception towards life. I have certain connections that I respect.
Mujhe logon se koi lena dena nahi hai. Joh troll karte hai, acchi baat hai, khush rahe apne zindagi mein (I don't care about those people. The ones who are trolling, good for them. Be happy). What about those millions of people who could connect and resonate with it?
Mere liye voh important hai (For me, that is important).”
The
Naagin actress added, “In my life, I have never thought about log kya bolenge. Even after my accident,
logon ne kaha tha ki kya bewakoofi kar rahi ho tum (Even after my accident, people said I was being foolish for the activities I did).
Lekin jab vahi ek success story ban jata hai, log usi ke baare mein charcha karte hai (But once it becomes a success story, people only talk about it).”
'Devotion is personal'
She concluded by saying, “Devotion is a personal issue. I don’t judge or criticise anyone’s devotion. I am not answerable to anyone’s questions or trolls. I am a self-made woman and I will continue living my life with dignity, respect and blessings from the divine.”Sudha Chandran’s Mata Ki Chowki was attended by several celebrities, including Jaswir Kaur, Kiran Kumar and many others.
