WATCH: Ram Lalla Idol ‘Blinks Eyes’ at Ayodhya Mandir in Viral AI-Generated Video

In a joyous ceremony on Monday, the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya resembled a festive Diwali celebration. Prime Minister Narendra Modi actively participated in the sacred rituals, but the spotlight was stolen by the 51-inch Ram Lalla idol. This remarkable figure, adorned with golden ornaments, precious stones, and flowers, captivated devotees.

However, online devotion reached a new peak not at the actual ceremony, but in the virtual realm. A video circulating on social media, purportedly created using artificial intelligence (AI), shows the Ram Lalla idol with lifelike expressions, even blinking its eyes. This hyper-realistic portrayal left many online users amazed, with awe-struck comments expressing genuine belief in a miraculous occurrence.

Here’s the video:

Interestingly, the idol had previously stirred controversy when a viral photograph revealed the eyes of Ram Lalla. This prompted chief priest Satyendra Das to call for an investigation into the matter.

The combination of the ‘Pran Pratishtha’ ceremony, Prime Minister Modi’s involvement, and the AI-generated lifelike portrayal of the Ram Lalla idol has created a buzz on social media, with devotees sharing their awe and amazement.
