Online Users Lashes Out At Jaya Kishori 

As soon as the video came to light over the Internet, the use of leather by her compounded the hatred among the netizens. One of the users stated, "Cow hair and unbleached cow skin are also used in the leather products of DIOR company. From time to time big celebrities have distanced themselves from those brands which are involved in unethical brand manufacturing, brand promotion and practices. In such a situation, the storyteller who is immersed in the devotion of Krishna and tells people is using the products of the company which uses cow skin in its leather products."

The next said, "Wow, what a thing! On one side there is devotion to Krishna and on the other side there are leather products made from cow hair and skin. Maybe they thought that brand promotion also includes a little 'cow service'! Looks like this unique amalgamation of religion and fashion is ready for a new topic of discussion!"

Another also said, "Seems she is the product of her parents training, as she is doing Katha Pravachan from the age of 10 12 years. But didn't learn anything from it as It was imposed by parents."

"What kind of religious leaders are these who use products made of cow leather? They do not even have any compassion for living beings in their minds, " the next user also stated.
