Tamannaah Bhatia removes her heels to light lamp at IFFM 2022; wins hearts

Tamannaah Bhatia recently turned heads at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne 2022 along with her Bollywood colleagues. The actor attended the film festival's commencement ceremony and also the screening of Taapsee Pannu's upcoming film Dobaara. While she also joined the Shabaash Mithu star in a small ceremony of lighting a lamp, Tamannaah Bhatia removed her heels. A clip of the actor is currently surfacing on the internet and fans cannot help but laud Bhatia for respecting her culture.

A video of Tamannaah Bhatia is currently going viral as she removed her heels right before lighting the ceremonial lamp on IFFM stage. In the video, Taapsee Pannu could be seen donning a black bodysuit and a matching long coat. As she lit a part of the lamp, she asked Tamannaah to continue. Tamannaah, who was dressed in a black and green dress, immediately removed her heels. When asked why she did that, Tamannaah Bhatia said, "It's just a South Indian tradition." The Bahubali star then lit the lamp barefoot.
