A video of Union Home Minister Amit Shah scolding his son Jay Shah, chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC), has taken social media by storm. The incident occurred during aarti at the Jagannath Temple in Ahmedabad on the second day of Shah’s three-day Gujarat visit.
The viral video shows Amit Shah performing the aarti and taking the flame near Jay Shah’s son. Concerned for his baby, Jay tried to shield him from the flames. This prompted Amit Shah to remark, "Kassu nai thay, tare kai novo navay no chokro che" (Nothing will happen; do you have a new and unique son?). The remark left VIPs and attendees chuckling, while Jay Shah appeared momentarily startled.

The Shah family performed rituals, including cow worship, where Amit Shah humorously reiterated to Jay Shah, "You have a new and unique son!" The family expressed gratitude after darshan, with the temple's serene atmosphere adding a special touch to the festivities.
