Mumbai, Nov 21 (NationPress) Anu Aggarwal, renowned for her iconic role in ‘Aashiqui’, has disclosed a significant part of her healing process.
In a recent social media update, she revealed that compassion was crucial in facilitating her recovery like nothing else could. Reflecting on her transformative journey, Anu emphasized how this profound emotion infused strength, clarity, and revitalization into her existence.
On Friday, Anu Aggarwal posted an honest selfie along with a message illustrating how compassion became the cornerstone of her foundation's work.
The actress expressed, “When compassion diminishes, the world divides into ‘me’ and ‘them.’ That division is where violence seeps in… where conflicts arise. But the moment I initiated my foundation, compassion became my guiding principle — and suddenly I was embracing everyone, with no biases, no barriers. And that love? It returned to me, healing me in ways nothing else ever could. A compassionate world is a peaceful world. Honestly, that’s the future I aspire for.”
Anu is quite active on Instagram and frequently garners attention for her introspective posts. Recently, she made headlines for discussing how she had been advocating for mental yoga long before it gained popularity. In an Instagram update, she reminisced about her initial experience as a yoga therapist, recalling her first class with underprivileged children from local slums.
She noted, “As an alternate yoga therapist, I established AFY in 2013, at a time when mental yoga was not widely accepted. This marked the beginning of an innovative and experimental approach. My inaugural class was at St Stanislaus with a group of children from slums. Although I was unsure about my ‘bring-joy yoga’ method's impact, witnessing the children transform from despair to vibrant enthusiasm was truly astonishing.”
“The joy I felt from observing this transformation was immensely rewarding. Encouraged by the success of my mind-body-psyche-emotions technique, I have continued to refine and expand this approach.”
On the professional front, Anu Aggarwal gained fame for her portrayal of Anu Verghese alongside Rahul Roy in Mahesh Bhatt’s legendary romantic drama “Aashiqui.” She subsequently appeared in numerous films, including “Khal-Naaikaa,” “The Cloud Door,” and “Thiruda Thiruda.”
