B-town couple Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra recently paid a visit to Vrindavan, a video of which surfaced online. The couple also met spiritual guru Premanand Ji Maharaj where Raj offered to donate a kidney to him, however, he politely refused. Raj's seemingly selfless act sparked intense online debate, with many social media users accusing him of using it as a "PR stunt" to improve his public image, citing his past controversies. The backlash prompted Raj to respond directly to the criticism on social media.
Raj Kundra took to X and slammed the trolls. He wrote on X, "Strange world we live in when someone chooses to offer a part of themselves to save another’s life, it’s mocked as a PR stunt. If compassion is a stunt, may the world see more of it."
"If humanity is a strategy, may more people adopt it. I’m not defined by labels the media or trolls throw at me. My past does not cancel my present choices, and my present intentions are not for you to measure with your cynicism. Judge less, love more you might just save a life too. #RadheRadhe #HumanityFirst #LetGoodnessLive," he further added.

During the visit, Shilpa Shetty learned the power of name chanting from Premanand Maharaj, who advised her to chant "Radha" for peace and simplicity. According to Maharaj, chanting Radha's name, regardless of the method, can free one from troubles and lead to a successful life journey if one follows the words of saints.
Premanand Ji Maharaj said, "I have one prayer for you that life is also an act. We have to live life while acting. But for whom should we live this life? This question needs to be resolved. We earn money, do everything, for whose comfort, comfort for what - for life. But the question arises - life is for whom? If life is for the Divine, then life becomes blessed. Otherwise neither wealth will remain, nor prosperity will remain, nor acting will remain, nor body will remain, there will come a time that will erase even our name and identity."
