As the nation celebrates Gandhi Jayanti, it’s a time to remember Mahatma Gandhi’s values of truth, peace, and non-violence. On this special occasion, Lakshay Khurana, who plays the lead role of Aditya in Sun Neo’s popular show Ishq Jabariya, reflects on the impact of Gandhi’s teachings in his life and work.
Speaking about Gandhi Jayanti, Lakshay Khurana shares, "Gandhi Jayanti is a day of remembrance for me, highlighting values like truth and peace. I reflect these principles daily by being honest and kind, whether in my work or interactions. It’s my way of honouring his legacy. In the film industry, we can promote Gandhi's values by creating content that emphasises understanding and harmony. Instead of glorifying conflict, we should tell stories that inspire dialogue and compassion."
The Ishq Jabariya actor also shares how Gandhi's teachings helped him through challenging times in his career. "Early in my career, I faced several rejections. It was tough, but I remembered Gandhi's teachings about perseverance. I kept pushing forward, believing in my talent and staying true to myself. Eventually, I landed a lead role in Sun Neo’s Ishq Jabariya, and it changed everything for me. Today, I'm winning hearts each day with my performance, and I can't be more proud. It taught me that persistence and honesty about who you are can lead to great things."
