Remember This Actor Who Played Kajol’s Fiance In ‘Pyar Toh Hona Hi Tha’, He Is A Yoga Guru Now

Remember Bijay Anand? The guy who played Kajol’s fiance in Pyar Toh Hona Hi Tha? He has taken the route of spirituality now, and teaches philosophy and Yoga to people all across the world.
Bijay made his debut in the film Yash, as the main lead. A song from that film, ‘Subah Subah Jab Khidki Khole’, became popular back then. And then Pyar Toh Hona Hi Tha happened, which turned out to be a blockbuster. But instead of pursuing a career in movies, he quit it all, and started on the path to spirituality.

In an interview with Asian Age from 2015, Bijay revealed why he just quit the movie business, and look for something higher in life.
“After Pyaar Toh Hona Hi Tha became a hit, I was offered 22 films as the main lead. But I just decided to quit the industry because my heart told me to do so. I have seen everything — poverty, struggle and I wanted to be known as an actor. But when I finally got that I realised it has no meaning.”
We must admit it takes guts to let go of something as addictive as fame.

After teaching Yoga, all around the world for 17 years, Bijay made a comeback in front of the camera with the TV serial Siya Ke Ram, in 2015. He played the role of Sita’s father Janak in the show.

When asked why he made a comeback after all these years, Bijay said,
“The character is just what I am in life. When Nikhil Sinha (producer) approached me for the show he said to me, ‘you are not an actor playing Janak, you are Janak, which is why I want you. I cannot think of anyone else for the part.’ And I agreed.”
For now, he doesn’t want to continue acting, and is back to his Yogi life. Now, that’s a different way of life, isn’t it?
