The Kosmic connection!

What is that one common thing between Akela leads Sudhanshu Pandey and Aashka Goradia? Well, we found out that they share a common spiritual guru, Gul Saheb, who is also a friend, philosopher and guide to them in times of trouble.

For those uninitiated, Gul Saheb, is a spiritual guru whom majority of the actors seek solace and counselling when in distress. And many of the actors who visit him swear by his charm and positive energy.

Aashka, who met Gul Saheb through a common friend, makes it a point to meet him once a week and given a chance would like to meet him everyday for advice.
She says,"I 've known Gulji for almost four years now. I often consult him on my career moves and personal decisions in life. In fact, I go blank if I don't meet him often. He opens up a new world for me and guides me to move ahead in life.."

Actor Sudhanshu Pandey was introduced to Gul Saheb, one and a half years ago by his good friend Shweta Menon.

" There was a time in my life when I needed a spiritual guru in my life. So, I went ahead and met him and today, I don't take up any big assignment without his

permission or his guidance. Me and my family are solely dependent on him for everything. Our profession has a lot of negativity around but once I meet him, I feel lighter in life. He tries to get the best out of me, by helping me take a positive approach towards life in general. For me, he is a God's person on earth who will never misguide anyone and tells us what we are capable of in life," says Sudhanshu for whom Gul Saheb had made predictions of being a star.

We met Gul Saheb and asked him how he deals with the actors and what he thinks of Aashka and Sudhanshu as his Shishyas.
" I wouldn't like to name too many people who come to me for counselling. But, all I can say is that most of the actors tend to be a depressed lot. And once they take off their pancakes, they come across as a very insecure lot. I help actors find solutions to all their problems, and at the same time I try to kill their ego, as it damages their lives. The reason why actors tend to be depressed is due to lack of work or professional and personal insecurity besides their relationship woes," says the guru.

From early actors like Pooja Madan, Karishma Modi and Shweta Agarwal to still loyalists Rakshandha Khan, Shweta Menon, Rakhi Tandon, Rahil Azam and Bhairavi Raichud go to Gul Saheb for mental peace and direction in life.
