Aniruddhacharya viral video: a recent clip has stirred strong reactions after he made controversial comments about women and live-in relationships. Many people found his remarks offensive and sexist. The backlash led to protests by women lawyers in Mathura who demanded police action. In the midst of the uproar, Aniruddhacharya’s mother spoke out emotionally to defend her son.
In the viral clip, Aniruddhacharya compared the past and present behaviour of women. He said that girls used to marry early, around 14, and easily adjusted to their new families. But now, he claimed, many women at 25 have been involved in several relationships before marriage. He also criticised today’s society, which he called “Kalyug,” saying some want to be seen as ideal women or “Sati-Savitri” while acting immodestly. Many viewers saw these comments as disrespectful and sexist.
The remarks did not go unnoticed. Women lawyers in Mathura protested and demanded that an FIR be filed against him. Critics questioned why religious leaders have not spoken out against such statements. This controversy quickly spread on social media, sparking heated debates across various platforms.

Aniruddhacharya’s Response To Allegations
Aniruddhacharya has claimed his words were taken out of context and edited. He said he was asking both men and women to behave well. The spiritual narrator accused some of trying to defame Sanatan Dharma through his comments.
He also questioned why live-in relationships are celebrated today and said, He said, “In Sanatan Dharma, daughters were never suppressed. All social evils entered India during the Mughal era.”
When asked about political criticism, including from Akhilesh Yadav, Aniruddhacharya said, “It’s not my words being opposed; it’s the saints.”
He invited critics to attend spiritual gatherings by Changur Baba and said respected saints like Rambhadracharya and Premanand Maharaj support him.
The controversy grew further when a video showed Aniruddhacharya’s father being mistreated in the ashram. However, the family claimed this video was old and edited.
