An image of a South Indian actress sitting at her husband’s feet has been going viral on the internet for all the wrong reasons. The picture, featuring Kannada actor Pranitha Subhash, has been receiving backlash and has also sparked multiple debates on the grounds of misogyny, subservience after marriage, and patriarchy.
Performing a ritual called Bheemana Amavasya, Pranitha is seen sitting on the floor next to her husband Nitin Raju, who is sitting on a chair with his feet in a thaali. The image was originally shared by the actress on her Twitter profile with the name of the ritual in the caption.

NEVER EVER. Better to die single than asking your partner to do this in the name of tradition and culture. And if you value tradition so much then wash her feet too after she finishes washing your feet. https://t.co/mElDQBsE1Z— Sourav(সৌরভ) (@Sourav_3294) July 29, 2022
“There is so much wrong in this pic and the thought,” said this user.
