India and its culture have always attracted many people from all over the world. When it comes to the Hollywood industry and its growing obsessions with India, I can cite several examples. Many famous Hollywood singers having their concerts in India at movies like Marigold Hotel etc. shot in India we can easily understand that our culture has a crazy influence. If all that wasn’t enough, then many stars from Angelina Jolie to Miley Cyrus have a Devanagari script tattooed on their bodies.
Yes! We know most of you weren’t aware of this fact, but these A-listers didn’t hesitate to expose these tattoos, and we’re so proud of it! Take a look at the list below.
MILEY CYRUS
There will hardly be anyone who doesn’t know Miley. Well, the singer turned actress is very popular for her relationship status, controversial images and so on. Anyway, other than that, what catches our attention is her tattoo. She inked the word “Om” written in Devanagari on her wrist. Not only Indians but people all over the world know the importance of the word “Om” and the proof is before your eyes.
ANGELINA JOLIE
To mark her son Maddox coming into her life, Angelina Jolie got this tattoo on her back, which is written in the Pali script. It has a Pali Buddhist inscription, which reads: “Let your enemies flee from you. If you acquire wealth, let it always be yours. Your beauty will be that of Apsara. Wherever you go, many will assist, serve and protect you, surrounding you on all sides.
KATY PERRY
While dating Russell Brand, she decided to go with the British actor to get an Anuugacchatu Pravaha tattoo, which means ‘go with the flow’. A painful reminder or a warm memory. Who knows? The words Anuugacchatu Pravaha are tattooed along his right bicep.
RIHANNA
Rihanna had a verse from the Bhagavad Gita tattooed on the right side of her waist up to her leg. However, what made this tattoo infamous is that it was apparently a misquote, as many Hindu scholars have fervently pointed out.
