Siddharth shared on his official Instagram handle, “The day I was chosen to portray Krishna in Krishna Avataram, my mother had just one wish: ‘That before the film reaches the world, you must seek the blessings of Pujya Premanand Maharaj ji.’ At that moment, I had no idea how that would ever be possible. But some prayers find their own path (sic).” “By what can only be called Krishna’s grace, and through the collective faith and effort of our entire team, we were blessed to personally meet Maharaj ji in Vrindavan, show him our trailer, and receive his blessings for Krishna Avataram. For me, this was more than a moment… it was the fulfilment of a dream, my mother’s prayer, and a blessing I will carry for life. With folded hands and a heart full of gratitude. Jai Shree Krishna,” he added. Directed by Hardik Gajjar, “Krishnavataram” shows Siddharth Gupta in the role of Lord Krishna.
