‘He will do anything to succeed… even fail’…. Says the tagline of the veteran actor Anupam Kher’s much talked about one act play ‘Kuch Bhi Ho Sakta Hai’. Besides being an actor par excellence, Anupam Kher has always been synonymous with inspiration for many. Time and again, Anupam Kher always makes it a point to speak about great leaders and inspiring personalities in his pep talks, interviews and as well as on social media. Recently, Anupam Kher added yet another ‘feather’ to his already overflowing cap of achievements. A few days ago, Anupam Kher had his first visit to Rabindranath Tagore’s town Shanti Niketan.
Continuing the tradition of sharing his experiences with everyone on social media, this time too, the 'Uunchai' shared the details with everyone on social media. He shared a collection of glimpses from his visit. The prolific actor was invited at the renowned ‘Visva Bharati University’ and soaked in the knowledge around him. He gave a motivational speech to the students on the ‘power of failure’. Needless to say that, he was met with a warm and smiling welcome. From there, he embarked on a journey to visit some of the most special places in the town.
Anupam Kher paid a visit to Gurudev’s house and experienced the serene environment of his living room and writing table. He even checked out the museum there learning a little more about the place’s history. He was left quite elated as he went to Rabindranath Tagore’s library and saw the first edition of Gitanjali, with Gurudev’s hand written note for Tagore in it. Sharing his experience of the place, Anupam Kher wrote on social media, “Shantiniketan aur main! Ek saanskrutik aur aatmik jhalki’ ( Shantiniketan and me! A Cultural and Spiritual Glimpse). Here are the few glimpses of my most memorable first visit to #VisvaBharati and #RabindranathTagore Ji’s #ShantiNiketan. Every Indian should visit this divine place. Mann shaant hua! Jeevan safal hua. (My mind was at peace. Life became successful). It already is! But we must make this one of most happening cultural hubs in the world! Thank you everybody at #Shantiniketan once again for all the love. Jai Gurudev!”
