Mumbai. Rekha Bhardwaj, wife of filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, is a popular background singer. His unique voice touches the hearts deeply. His music has depth and intimacy, which leaves an indelible mark in Indian cinema. But now she says that this depth came from not only training or talent, but has come from an internal journey, which includes questions, upheaval and cool transformations. He told that there was a lot of sadness in his life. Career was successful, but people knew him as Vishal’s wife. She was desperate. He chose the path of spirituality. She went to Osho’s shelter.
Rekha Bhardwaj said in an interview to Shubhankar Mishra that despite the success in life and career, she fell. The reason for starting this journey was not a sudden tragedy, but a turbulent, more unstable feeling. He said, “Yes, I was successful in love, life and career. But still, I felt stretched towards something else.”
Rekha Bhardwaj said that she went to Osho’s shelter in the last. Read and teach Osho’s teachings. He said that many people connect Sprichualaity to an injury or pain after pain, but it is not so. Professionally successful people also seek spirituality, like Vinod Khanna.
Rekha Bhardwaj said, “Did Vinod Khanna not leave everything at the height of his career and go to Osho? Do not wait for life to disintegrate in search of something. Sometimes, the inner peace becomes so turbulent that it becomes difficult to ignore him.” Rekha mentioned a special kind of discomfort, which still comes when everything seems fine.
Rekha Bhardwaj said, “I was always presented as Vishal Bhardwaj’s wife. I had achieved a lot in music. But I started thinking that I am beyond these roles? I had an identity crisis. There is a strange sadness that can kill you even in the happiest moments. I can feel some empties inside. Then you realize that the jerni will have to be turned inside.”
During this period of self-thinking, he turned to Osho’s teachings. After this, not only a philosophical awakening took place, but there was a deep understanding of his own emotional form. He said, “Osho’s meditation being part of the school helped me clear things. I understood the ego as not as a word, but as an experience. I saw how easily jealousy or resentment comes in, how we project the blame outwards rather than see inside.”
