Videos of Bageshwar Dham Baba enjoying a Bullet ride and a vintage car have gone viral, thrilling devotees and sparking widespread social media buzz.
Pandit Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, popularly known as Bageshwar Dham Baba, has once again grabbed headlines. This time, it is not for his religious discourses or spiritual teachings but for his stylish rides in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh. Two videos of the spiritual leader went viral on social media, showing him enjoying luxurious vehicles, much to the excitement of his devotees.
In one of the reels, Shastri can be seen riding a Royal Enfield Bullet, wearing a safety helmet, and dressed in his traditional saffron attire. He waves cheerfully to onlookers while riding along a scenic road, creating a sense of thrill among his followers.
The video captured his confident ride, highlighting his comfort behind the wheel of a powerful motorcycle.

In the second clip, Shastri is spotted seated in a vintage car, interacting with female devotees who accompany him. The open-top car allows the leader to converse comfortably, and his expressions reflect warmth and engagement as he shares insights and information with the passengers.
Both vehicles are reportedly owned by Shastri's devotees, who gladly offer them for his use.
The sight of the spiritual leader enjoying a Bullet ride and a vintage car left locals and devotees enthusiastic, with many taking out their phones to record the moments. The videos have since been widely shared on X (formerly Twitter), gathering views and reactions.
Shastri's Luxury Style
Dhirendra Shastri is no stranger to luxury. Over the years, he has been seen using stylish sunglasses, branded jackets, and other high-end items during public appearances.
During his trip to Australia in June, he was spotted wearing expensive jackets and sunglasses while traveling on a plane, and later enjoying a cruise. Social media users criticised him for enjoying such luxuries despite being a spiritual figure.
As per News18, responding to the criticism, Shastri clarified, 'You have an issue with my jacket and sunglasses? Let me make it clear – they are not mine…these are gifts I received from my disciples." He further explained that the offerings he receives during Katha programs are not for personal use but are utilized for social welfare, including building a cancer hospital and supporting poor girls. He urged people to avoid spreading 'worthless negativity."
While Bageshwar Baba continues to draw attention beyond religion, his popularity remains undiminished, with followers admiring both his spiritual teachings and his approachable personality.

Air Canada Halts Operations As Thousands Of Cabin Crew Walk Off In Strike At Major Airports
Air Canada has urged affected passengers not to travel unless they have confirmed tickets on other airlines Air Canada suspended most of its operations on Saturday after more than 10,000 flight attendants went on strike, disrupting travel for tens of thousands of passengers during the busy summer season. The strike began early Saturday morning after the union and airline failed to reach a deal. The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), representing the flight attendants, confirmed the work stoppage on social media. This is the first strike by Air Canada flight attendants since 1985. The dispute centres on wages and working conditions. Flight attendants are currently paid only when the plane is moving. The union demands compensation for time spent on the ground between flights and while helping passengers board. Air Canada had offered a 38% total pay increase over four years, including a 25% raise in the first year, but the union says this offer falls short. Hundreds of striking employees formed picket lines outside major Canadian airports, including Toronto Pearson, Montreal, Calgary, and Vancouver. The airline said it suspended the majority of its 700 daily flights, affecting about 130,000 passengers each day. Flights operated by regional affiliates like Air Canada Jazz and PAL Airlines continued as usual. The strike comes amid a bitter contract fight. The union rejected Air Canada's request for government-imposed arbitration, which would have removed their right to strike and allowed a third party to set contract terms. Air Canada has urged affected passengers not to travel unless they have confirmed tickets on other airlines. The airline is also asking the Canadian government to intervene, but the union insists on a negotiated settlement. Canada's Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu has urged both sides to return to talks. The Canada Labour Code allows the government to impose binding arbitration if needed to protect the economy. Analysts warn the strike could damage Air Canada's finances in its most critical quarter. They urge both sides to find a peaceful resolution to avoid prolonged disruption. The strike not only affects Canadian travellers but also has wider implications, as Air Canada is the busiest foreign airline serving the US market by scheduled flights.
