Spirituality –  Actor Tanishaa Mukerji has spoken candidly about the deep respect she holds for her sister Kajol and brother-in-law Ajay Devgn, describing their relationship as a symbol of divine harmony in her life. The actress shared her thoughts while attending the Maha Shivratri celebrations at the Isha Yoga Center, where she reflected on family, faith and personal growth.

A Relationship She Reveres

Tanishaa said that ever since Kajol married Ajay Devgn, she has regarded the couple as an embodiment of spiritual balance and devotion. In her view, their bond mirrors the qualities of Shiva and Parvati, figures widely revered in Hindu tradition for representing unity and strength.

Speaking at the event, she acknowledged that her perspective may be shaped by affection, but maintained that she has always admired the way they complement each other. For her, their partnership reflects stability and shared values, something she deeply appreciates within her own family circle.

Interest in Portraying Spiritual Roles

During the interaction, Tanishaa also addressed her own connection to spirituality and whether she would consider bringing that dimension to the screen. She said she would welcome the opportunity to portray a spiritually inclined character, provided the role is crafted with care and authenticity.

The actress explained that she does not actively seek out such parts, largely because spirituality is already a significant part of her personal life. However, she believes that if a script thoughtfully explores the inner journey of a character, it could make for compelling storytelling. According to her, strong writing remains the foundation of any meaningful performance. Without a well-developed character arc, she finds it challenging to fully immerse herself in a role.

Meditation and Emotional Awareness

Tanishaa placed particular emphasis on meditation, describing it as a transformative practice that has reshaped her outlook. She credited regular meditation with helping her become more self-aware, especially in moments of anger or emotional strain.

Earlier, she said, strong emotions would often cloud her judgment. Now, meditation allows her to pause and examine what triggers those feelings. By reflecting on the source of her reactions, she is better able to respond calmly rather than impulsively. This heightened awareness, she explained, has brought clarity and a sense of balance to her daily life.

Overcoming Habits Through Discipline

Beyond emotional control, Tanishaa revealed that meditation has helped her address personal habits, including procrastination. She described how moments of stillness often lead to greater decisiveness. When she sits quietly, she said, she feels an inner prompting that encourages her to take action instead of postponing tasks.

For the actress, repetition and consistency are central to mental discipline. She believes the mind responds to steady practice, and that cultivating focus requires ongoing effort. Meditation, in her view, serves as a practical tool for strengthening that discipline.

Spirituality and Mental Well-Being

Tanishaa described spirituality as a valuable support system for mental health. She suggested that individuals experiencing emotional difficulty may find comfort and strength in spiritual practice, regardless of specific religious affiliation.

According to her, spirituality is rooted in discipline — the habit of returning to prayer, reflection or quiet contemplation each day. She explained that the essence of religion, as she understands it, lies in consistent practice rather than ritual alone. By dedicating time daily to introspection or prayer, individuals can build resilience and inner stability.

She also encouraged young people to spend time in silence, saying that self-reflection often leads to meaningful insights. For Tanishaa, sitting quietly and listening inwardly has become a reliable way to find direction and clarity.

Through her remarks, the actress underscored how faith, family and mindfulness continue to shape her life both on and off screen.
