It’s not that I am not spiritual, but over time, I had drifted away from spirituality for whatever reason. But I don’t know… the last four-five months have been beautiful. Somehow, I found myself wondering how I could get a tulsi mala from Vrindavan.”
He also shared that he started doing naam jaap (chanting). “I follow Neem Karoli Baba, and through him I was introduced to Premanand Maharaj ji. I started listening to his sermons, and then I understood what naam jaap is.” He added, “One thing led to another, but whenever I find time, whenever I’m distracted or whenever I begin to think something negative, this thought comes to my mind that when you are doing naam jaap, you are doing something good, and it also helps you forget all your stress and worries,” he added.
Karan was recently seen in the romantic thriller series Raisinghani vs Raisinghani (2024) on SonyLIV.
