A clip showing Kangana Ranaut, dressed in a traditional saree with flowers in her hair, performing rituals with a priest at a temple is being shared with the claim that she was observing the Karwa Chauth fast for PM Modi. Karwa Chauth is a fast traditionally kept by married women for their husbands’ well-being. PTI Fact Check found that the video has nothing to do with Karwa Chauth. It dates from June 2026, when Ranaut, a BJP MP, performed a puja to mark the completion of 12 years of the Modi government. Media photographers can be seen recording the event in the full footage. Linking the old clip to Karwa Chauth gives it a false and mocking twist, so a video’s date and context should be checked before it is shared.
