When Big B’s lookalike met Premanand Maharaj
A few months ago, a video went viral that showed spiritual leader Premanand Maharaj meeting Amitabh Bachchan’s lookalike, Shashikant Pedwal. The clip caught everyone’s attention as Pedwal, who looks strikingly similar to the legendary actor, spoke about his experience of helping patients during the pandemic.
Shashikant Pedwal recalls helping patients with hope
During their conversation, Shashikant Pedwal opened up about the time when the world was fighting the Covid pandemic. He recalled how he took it upon himself to motivate patients who were struggling both physically and emotionally. He said, “When Covid happened, many people were distressed. People, who were at an advance stage, felt that they would be no more any moment. They were scared. I helped in eliminating that. I didn’t say I was Amitabh Bachchan, but they thought I am him. I told them that there was a time when I was sick and the entire country was praying for me. And today, you are sick, I will pray for you. You don’t need to worry. Within 4-5 days, they felt motivated and even went home after recovering. Since then, I go to the hospital and motivate cancer patients by reciting poems for them. They become happy. I just want to make people happy all my life, that’s my goal now.”
Premanand Maharaj appreciated Pedwal’s selfless service
After hearing his story, Premanand Maharaj praised Shashikant Pedwal for his good deeds. He said, “Bhagwan sab jagah nahi pahuch sakte, aap toh pahuch sakte hain. Yeh acha kiya unhone (Giving happiness to others is the greatest virtue. God cannot reach everywhere, so he has entrusted this work to people like you).”
Spiritual leader advised Pedwal to chant God’s name
After listening to Maharaj’s words, Pedwal asked how he could continue doing his work with even more dedication. The spiritual leader advised him to chant God’s name while meeting people.
