recently took a break from her hectic schedule to immerse herself in a rejuvenating experience at the Art of Living Ashram. Tucked away from the chaos of city life, the retreat offered Hina a chance to reconnect with her inner self and explore the deeper dimensions of consciousness.
In a heartfelt note shared with her fans, Hina reflected on her transformative journey. 'Yoga is to connect to the universal power within all of us. It's to join in unison with the Conscious, Subconscious and Metaconscious,' she wrote. Her time at the ashram was not just about physical wellness, but about holistic healing and spiritual alignment.
She experienced various life-enhancing practices, from breath control techniques to mindfulness exercises.
'This place has so much to offer—processes like the Sudarshan Kriya, Sehej Samadhi, Intuition Program, and many more,' Hina shared, calling it a life-altering experience. 'So many therapies and experiences that bring you close to both nature and yourself.'
Expressing deep gratitude, she thanked spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, saying, 'Thank you @gurudev for sharing the insights and Life Altering Programs with the world… you really have developed a Path Changing, Soul Awakening, Mind Rejuvenating—Art of Living.'

Hina concluded by encouraging others to explore this journey: 'Everyone must come here and experience it for themselves to see the change.' Committed to continuing her practice, she affirmed, 'I shall continue to practice this breath work every day.'
Hina and her longtime partner Rocky Jaiswal took a soulful break and immersed themselves in the Art of Living experience, which was also attended by actor Vikrant Massey, his wife Sheetal, their son, and even Dr.
Madhu Chopra (Priyanka Chopra's mother).
'We all had different reasons to be there, we all had different callings. But once we got together, it was like a big family. We learned how to meditate, we learned how to activate our inner peace and power, we also unlearned the old ways and undid the old shackles. We enjoyed with each other, grew with each other and became friends with each other,' Hina wrote, sharing moments from the serene getaway.

Adnan Sami chose India on Asha Bhosle's advice: 'People in Pakistani music industry just decided I was done'

Adnan Sami , who was originally from Pakistan, took Indian citizenship in 2016. Adnan revealed that the reason he chose to make a career in India wasn't just money, but because he felt dejected in Pakistan. In a recent interview, he revealed how Asha Bhosle motivated him to be here when he was all disappointed. He added how she made him feel at home in Mumbai when they worked together on 'Kabhi Toh Nazar Milaao'. After that, the rest was history as he got a lot of love and fame here. In a candid new interview with India TV, singer Adnan Sami opened up about the deeply personal struggles that led him to shift his musical journey from Pakistan to India, a move that would ultimately redefine his career. "After I released a few songs in 1998, people in the Pakistani music industry just decided I was done," Sami said, recalling the period with visible disappointment. "They didn't even bother to promote the album. There was no marketing, nothing. It came out, and no one even knew. It disappeared like it never existed. That really broke me." At the time, Sami was living in Canada, processing the betrayal he felt from an industry that had once embraced him. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo "I knew they'd done it deliberately. That realization hit me hard." Looking for hope, Sami turned to a legendary figure, Asha Bhosle, who had sung the timeless 'Kabhi To Nazar Milao' with him for his 1997 album Badaltey Mausam. 'I told Asha ji, 'I'm dejected. I feel people back home have made up their minds not to work with me, for reasons I don't even know.' I asked her if we could record something together in London,' he shared. Her response shifted the course of his life. ''Why London?' she asked me. I said, 'I know some people there, maybe I could work with them.' And she said, 'Look, if you really want to do something impactful, come to Mumbai. This is the capital of Hindi music. If something works here, it goes global. This is the place where magic happens.'' Inspired, Sami took the plunge. 'Main boriya bistar le ke pahuch gaya Mumbai,' he laughed, remembering the moment he arrived in the city with nothing but hope and his music. 'Asha ji and her entire family looked after me like their own.' He shared how Bhosle offered him more than just professional support, she gave him a sanctuary. 'She made me stay in RD Burman's house. For a musician, that place was like a temple. I was so lucky.' Mumbai proved to be the turning point. The songs that had faded into obscurity in Pakistan found new life, and massive success, in India. 'Kabhi To Nazar Milao, Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein, Lift Karadey, they were marketed brilliantly here. The rest, as they say, is history,' said Sami with gratitude. 'The love and acceptance I received... I never imagined it in my wildest dreams.' He emphasized that while greats like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Mehdi Hassan, and Reshma earned love in Pakistan, their true popularity skyrocketed outside. 'You can't deny it, the audience here is massive. The attitude towards music, the respect for musicians, it's unmatched.' But he didn't shy away from pointing out the painful reality many Pakistani legends faced. 'The world loved Mehdi Hassan sahib and Reshma ji, but their last days were tragic. No support from the system, no help. Just forgotten. There are so many others like them, not just singers, even actors.' Addressing the infamous letter from then-Pakistani President General Pervez Musharraf to his father in 2005, which accused him of betraying Pakistan, Sami responded firmly. 'That letter had no truth. In 2005, I was still a Pakistani citizen, I hadn't even become Indian yet,' he clarified. 'I don't know who misinformed him, but clearly, something wrong was passed up the chain. And just like that, everyone turned their backs on me.' With honesty and humility, Adnan Sami's story isn't just about music, it's about finding home, respect, and love in a place where he least expected it.

Pankaj Tripathi opens up about taking a break after father's demise: 'I took time off to work on myself and heal'

Pankaj Tripathi , known for his powerful performances and calm on-screen presence, recently shared that he took a full year off from acting. The actor, who was recently seen in 'Criminal Justice 4' revealed that he didn't sign a single film during that time. After losing his father in 2023, he decided to quietly take a step back and focus on himself, both mentally and physically. 'I did not sign a film for one year' The 'Mirzapur' actor opened up in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India about the emotional reason behind his break from the screen. He said, 'After my father's demise, I went on an introspective journey. I did not sign a film for a year, and I didn't announce that I was taking a break.' He added, 'I took time off to work on myself and heal, physically and mentally. That's why I've lost weight. I work out for three hours a day, six days a week. I also travelled, trips that I'd been putting off for a long time.' Although the 'Mimi' actor stayed away from film sets, he did wrap up a few minor work commitments like ad shoots and some patchwork for the upcoming film 'Metro…In Dino'. But apart from that, he stayed out of the media spotlight and didn't take on any new film scripts. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo 'I kept telling people I don't have time' Tripathi revealed that he didn't officially announce his break because he wanted to quietly focus on himself. He said he kept telling people he was too busy, but in truth, that time was reserved for much-needed reflection and healing. He shared, 'I'm at a point where I'm no longer working for the money. I need to do work that gives me something to look forward to.' The actor admitted there was a time when he wasn't feeling the same passion for his work. 'There was a time when I was counting days on projects just waiting for them to end. And I thought- this can't be right. I love this profession so much. I've made so many sacrifices to get here, and if I'm spending my days just waiting for shoots to wrap, then something's wrong. That's why I took a break,' he explained. Coping with his father's passing Tripathi's father, Pandit Banaras Tiwari, passed away in August 2023 at the age of 99. It was a huge personal loss for the actor. Though he didn't talk about it much in public at the time, this moment marked the beginning of a quiet but important chapter in his life. While he didn't take to social media or give emotional interviews at the time, he did dedicate his National Award win to his late father. He also made a heartfelt gesture by opening a library in his village high school in memory of him. A strong comeback with 'Metro… In Dino' After spending some time away from the film world, Pankaj Tripathi is now preparing to return to the big screen with 'Metro… In Dino'. The film is a spiritual sequel to the 2007 hit 'Life… In A Metro', directed by Anurag Basu.
