Possession or Pure Bhakti? Sudha Chandran’s Viral Moment Leaves Internet Shocked
A video of Sudha Chandran’s intense emotional moment during her annual Mata Ki Chowki went viral, leaving viewers divided between calling it devotion or a worrying episode
Veteran actor Sudha Chandran recently hosted her annual ‘Mata Ki Chowki’, a devotional tradition she follows every year. The event was attended by her family, close friends, and many well-known faces from the television industry. Sudha Chandran is respected across India not only for her strong on-screen presence but also for her inspiring real-life journey as a dancer who returned to the stage after losing a leg.
On 4 January 2026, a video from the Mata Ki Chowki went viral on social media, showing Sudha Chandran in an extremely intense emotional state. In the clips, she suddenly appears overwhelmed by a raw, powerful wave of emotion. She swayed, screamed, and people nearby rushed to support her. In one moment, she even seemed to try to bite someone who was holding her, creating a sense of shock and confusion among viewers.
The reactions online were immediate and divided. Some people said it was pure bhakti, a deep spiritual trance or divine possession often described by devotees. Others felt worried, wondering if she was unwell or experiencing a medical situation. A few viewers compared the scene to something from a mythic ritual because of the intensity and how transported she appeared.
The clips spread quickly across platforms, WhatsApp groups, and news pages. The reason the video exploded online is simple: people are used to seeing Sudha Chandran as a fierce performer and powerful dancer. Seeing the same intensity in a real-life moment with loud bhajans, dramatic emotion, and a charged devotional setting created a striking, unforgettable scene perfect for social media attention
