Climbing the steps of the Tirumala temple is no easy task for anyone, and it’s common for people to take breaks in between. Pawan Kalyan is no exception.
However, trolls have been targeting him relentlessly. Since he is a popular star, many expect him to be physically strong and agile. He has also boasted about his martial arts background, which adds to people's expectations.
But the way he struggled while climbing the steps, showing visible signs of exhaustion, has come as a surprise to many. He was pausing frequently, and his body language suggested that he was on the verge of collapsing from fatigue.
The highlight of the scene is that his team, who were climbing with him, remained strong while stopping wherever he needed to rest, waving handheld fans to give him some air.
The videos have gone viral on social media, with comments on Twitter hurting Pawan’s fans but amusing others.
One particular troll gained attention, where a news channel claimed that Pawan Kalyan was climbing the Tirumala steps faster than his security personnel, only to show the actual scene where his security was fanning him as he sat exhausted with sweat, along the way.
While some are attributing his fatigue to 55 years of age, others argue that even people over 65 years old climb the steps with less effort, and what really matters is one's stamina levels.
On the other hand, some have added a spiritual perspective, suggesting that if one's devotion is genuine, God Himself makes the journey easier for the devotees.
