In a heartwarming and humorous encounter, beloved Bollywood comedian Rajpal Yadav recently paid a visit to the revered spiritual leader Premanand Ji Maharaj at his ashram in Vrindavan. The meeting, captured in a now-viral video, showcased a delightful blend of devotion and the actor's signature comic timing, even leaving the guru himself in fits of laughter.
A Viral Meeting of Devotion and Humour
The video, which has been widely shared across social media platforms, shows Rajpal Yadav entering the serene premises of Premanand Ji Maharaj's ashram with deep respect and humility. Known for offering solace to millions, the ashram has previously been visited by a host of Bollywood personalities including power couple Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli, rapper Badshah, and celebrities Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra.
Upon meeting, the spiritual leader inquired about the actor's identity. In a response that was both innocent and witty, Rajpal Yadav replied, "I am fine today. I want to say so many things, but at the moment I am unable to understand what to say." He then proceeded to share a profound and playful insight into his inner world, which became the highlight of their interaction.
Rajpal's 'Madness' and the Message That Made Maharaj Laugh
The 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' actor revealed a unique personal belief to Premanand Ji Maharaj. He said, "I have a madness, a misunderstanding inside that the Dvapara Yuga happened. Krishna ji existed, gualas existed, and I think I was Mansukha." This heartfelt and imaginative confession, referring to a companion of Lord Krishna, instantly caused Premanand Ji Maharaj to burst out laughing.
Rajpal Yadav further expressed his desire to hold on to this beautiful 'madness'. Appreciating the sentiment and the actor's life's work, the spiritual leader warmly encouraged him, saying, "You are the one who makes the whole of India laugh, you entertain us, definitely keep it." The actor then added, "I call myself Mansukh deep inside. Gurudev, my only wish is that no one should suffer," revealing a layer of deep compassion beneath his comic exterior.
Spiritual Guidance and the Actor's Gratitude
The conversation then turned towards spiritual practices. Rajpal Yadav discussed the mantras he recites for peace and blessings. In response, Premanand Ji Maharaj gave him a specific spiritual instruction: to perform 'naam jaap' by chanting the name of Goddess Radha. He advised the actor to use a counter to keep track of his chants, a common practice for maintaining focus in devotion.
The meeting concluded with Rajpal Yadav expressing his sincere gratitude for the opportunity to visit the ashram and receive the guru's blessings. This visit underscores a continuing trend where individuals from all walks of life, including the glittering world of Bollywood, seek spiritual grounding and guidance at such peaceful sanctuaries.
The viral clip has resonated with netizens, who have appreciated seeing the lighter, spiritual side of the comedian who has dedicated his career to spreading joy on screen. It stands as a testament to the universal search for meaning and the simple, connecting power of laughter and faith.
