'Wink sensation' Priya Varrier speaks on Sabarimala issue
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,February 15 2019]
Priya Prakash Varrier, the national crush and the 'wink sensation', has expressed her take on the Sabarimala controversy. She has taken a traditionalist's position.
When IndiaGlitz asked the Kerala-based talent about the issue, she was forthright. I think it's pretty meaningless. I have not thought much about the issue. If we have to fight for equality, we have to go a long way back (indicating there are many things that need to be prioritized before the Sabarimala tradition). The Sabarimala tradition has been practised for so many years. A devotee is supposed to take a 'vratham' for 41 days. Obviously, a woman can't do that. She can't be pure (referring to the menstrual cycle) for 41 days, the 19-year-old actress said.
'Lovers Day', the Telugu version of her debut Malayalam movie, was released this Thursday.
