Actress Indira Krishna, who was last seen playing Paani Bai, an antagonist in the TV show Durga – Atoot Prem Kahan, says she is connected to Lord Shiva. The veteran actress talks about celebrating the festival of Mahashivratri.
She said, “I have a Shiva lingam at home. I worship and celebrate Mahashivratri. A key ritual for me is fasting for one day on this day. I consume only a few fruits. Fasting signifies self-control and is believed to purify one’s soul, body, and mind, which in turn helps me focus my thoughts and divert energies to spiritual purposes.”
She continued, “I enjoy listening to Shiv Mantras and be in silence as much as possible. I meditate and chant the lord’s name. The chanting of the lord’s name, along with meditative practice during Mahashivratri, is said to help followers establish a strong spiritual connection with their inner selves and experience the lord’s divine aura. I continuously chant the Panchakshara mantra, “Om Namah Shivaya” whenever it is possible for me through the day.”
Indira also spoke about frequently visiting the Shri Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga Temple in Ujjain to seek blessings. She added, “I’m connected to Mahakal. I frequently visit the Shri Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga Temple in Ujjain to seek blessings. The first time I visited, I was mesmerized, and there was a magnetic vibration that shook me. I’m yet to visit all the Jyotirlinga temples. I have also visited Shri Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga and Rameswaram as a kid.”
Indira is known for featuring in shows like Krishnadasi, Krishnaben Khakhrawala, and Saavi Ki Savaari among others.
