The footage released on 2nd March, that infuriated devotees of Nityananda is now being called fake and morphed by mission spokesmen who claimed that it is the handiwork of Premananda alias Lenin Karuppan, an inmate of the ashram. The footage shows the guru fondling two women, one of them a Tamil actress, Ranjitha, married to an army officer.
People from the mission claim that Nithyananda tried to stop the airing of the footage but the civil court ruled against the guru and the footage was aired. Swamiji’s spokesman appeared in the media with the help of police protection and said that the footage is fake and is nothing but graphics. He said that all this was done to defame the guru as many were jealous of his popularity. He said action will be taken against the concerned person. The petition has been posted to March 8 for further hearing.
The actress in the video, Ranjitha, is still silent and has not yet given any statement. While mission authorities claim the video to be fake, people who stayed in the Ashram have another story to tell. One of the devotees claimed that during the 3 months in summer when he was at the Ashram, he saw the Guru and actress Ranjitha together all the time.
Nithyananda denounced worldly pleasures and became a spiritual Guru at the tender age of 12. He has more than 10,000 ashrams in 33 countries. According to sources the main source of his income are politicians and celebrities.
