Will Smith participated in the Ganga Aarti during his recent trip to Haridwar, and his recent Instagram post shares a peek at his experience.
Hollywood actor Will Smith is no stranger to India, and has visited the country on more than one occasion. His most recent trip to India took place for an upcoming Facebook Watch show, Will Smith’s Bucketlist, and took him to Haridwar to experience the Ganga Aarti. In case you missed it, Smith took to his Instagram page this weekend to share a glimpse at some of the most special moments from his visit to Haridwar, and the album comes with a heartfelt caption that takes us back into the star’s childhood too.
Featuring snapshots of Smith praying (and even a selfie video from the Ganga Aarti), the post was captioned: “My Grandmother used to say, “God Teaches through Experience”. Traveling to India & Experiencing the colours, people and natural beauty has awakened a new understanding of myself, my Art & the Truths of the world.” Did you miss the post?
Will Smith’s India trip this time around also had him exploring the streets of Mumbai in an autorickshaw, and taking dance lessons from Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar. Few know that the actor has always had a keen interest in Bollywood, and another episode of his Facebook Watch show (Will Smith’s Bucketlist: Bollywood Dancing) will let fans see the Hitch actor in a dance sequence for a Bollywood song. “I’ve always wanted to be in a Bollywood dance sequence,” actor says. “I’ve always loved India. India is just a beautiful culture. The colours, the music, the intersection of religion and cinema … everything about this culture just speaks to my personality. India has always had this otherworldly pull on me.” Smith even revealed this experience was a dream come true for him. Spoiler: Johar has already shared a video of Will Smith dancing to Student of the Year‘s ‘Radha’ with Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria. Smith will be seen making a special appearance in Student of the Year 2. Watch a snippet below:
Will Smith’s Bucketlist is a six-episode Facebook Watch show that will have Smith trying some unmissable adventures from around the globe to celebrate his 50th birthday, which took place on September 25, 2018. This sneak peek is one you’ve got to check out now.
