On Friday, Pawan Kalyan exhorted his followers to participate in the mass meditation programme of Art of Living. Reacting to the appeal made by the actor-politician, spiritual 'guru' Sri Sri Ravi Shankar today thanked Pawan and described him as a man whose heart is in the right place.

"Your heart is in the right place, Pawan Kalyan. You have always stood for people in the time of need to uplift their spirit," Ravi Shankar tweeted out.

"I urge everyone to experience the power of the inner self in this turbulent time to stay positive. Join millions who meditate with Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar every day at 12 noon and 7:30 PM," the 'Vakeel Saab' actor said on Friday, referring to AOL's meditation programme.
