Mumbai, Dec 12 (NationPress) Commemorating the first anniversary of the show 'Atal', actors Aayudh Bhanushali, who depicts young Atal, and Neha Joshi, who represents Krishna Devi Vajpayee, made a visit to the iconic leader's birthplace, Gwalior.
Aayudh Bhanushali, who plays young Atal, shared his thoughts on the significance of visiting Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh.
He stated: “Celebrating the first anniversary of Atal in Gwalior, the birthplace of Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, was a heartfelt homage to the great leader. The timing couldn't have been more poignant, as December is also his birth month.”
“During our time there, Neha Aai (Krishna Devi Vajpayee) and I had the opportunity to explore his ancestral home, which houses a public library and a computer training center named after his father, Krishna Bihari Vajpayee. We also enjoyed a visit to Bahadura Sweets, renowned for his favorite boondi ladoos—they were absolutely scrumptious!”
He continued: “What made this trip even more memorable was the warm welcome we received from the people of Gwalior. Their insights about how attentively they watch the show, their praise for my portrayal of young Atal ji, and their affection for the storyline inspire me to further engage and entertain our audience.”
Neha Joshi, who plays Krishna Devi Vajpayee, shared her reflections on the journey, “Visiting Gwalior to celebrate our show’s anniversary was an unforgettable experience. Walking through the streets and sites connected to Shri Atal Ji’s life, especially during his birth month, was incredibly touching.”
“From exploring the library to his preferred sweet shop, every corner of this city embodies his legacy. Portraying Krishna Devi Vajpayee has given me the chance to delve into previously untold aspects of his childhood, and being where he was born and raised felt like a profound blessing.”
She added, “The warm reception from the Gwalior community made this celebration even more special. Hearing their thoughts and realizing how deeply they resonate with our show was uplifting. Their affection and detailed feedback about the narrative and characters drive us to work even harder to honor Shri Atal ji’s legacy.”
In discussing the show, Neha noted, “The series emphasizes his close relationship with his mother, Krishna Devi Vajpayee, who instilled in him the values of unity, compassion, and perseverance. Through its compelling storytelling, 'Atal' brings to life the inspiring journey of a boy from humble origins who ascended to become one of India’s most esteemed statesmen.”
