Anshul Bammi on life in Kolkata as he shoots for Advocate Anjali Awasthi; says ‘This city holds a raw, soulful energy'
Actor Anshul Bammi , who is currently portraying the antagonist Yuvraj Thakur in the television show Advocate Anjali Awasthi , has been stationed in Kolkata since mid-2024 for the shoot. Known for his previous roles in Pandya Store, Titli (as cop Ankit Patel), and as Sheshnag in Laxmi Narayan – Sukh Saamarthya Santoolan, Anshul is experiencing Kolkata in a deeply personal and transformative way. Sharing his thoughts about life in the city, Anshul told Times of India TV, 'Coming from Mumbai, which is a fast-moving city, Kolkata is totally the opposite. It's calm and more peaceful. I'm feeling life in a different way which is new, and I kinda enjoy it. I definitely miss Mumbai sometimes, but this city is treating me well.' While Kolkata's spiritual depth has left a lasting impression, the actor also admits he's developed a newfound fondness for Bengali sweets. 'I was never a fan of sweets, but you definitely can't resist the baked rasgulla,' he laughs. As a devout believer, Anshul found himself deeply moved by the spiritual energy of the city. 'Visiting Kalighat Temple was an intense and moving experience. The energy there is powerful—you can feel the history and faith. Dakshineswar Kali Temple is architecturally stunning and incredibly peaceful. The river adds a divine presence to the whole experience.' He adds, 'Kolkata holds a special kind of soulful, raw energy that stays with you.' But it's not all spiritual serenity. 'The city has a vibe that's hard to explain—a mix of old-world charm and quirky chaos. Tram rides, yellow ambassador taxis, phuchkas, kathi rolls—Kolkata surprises you at every corner.' Anshul signs off with a recommendation: 'Don't miss a boat ride on the Hooghly River at sunset—it's pure magic.' From mythology to modern drama, Anshul continues to explore roles—and cities—with equal passion.
