Osho Movement’s Influence on Bollywood Legends Revealed

The Osho movement, which began in the 1970s, quickly expanded into a global spiritual phenomenon emphasizing meditation, self‑awareness, mental tranquility, and personal freedom. While Subhash Ghai’s association with the guru made headlines, he is not the only film personality linked to Osho. Veteran actor Vinod Khanna also became a prominent follower, leaving his successful Bollywood career at its peak to join Osho’s ashram in Rajneeshpuram, Oregon. Khanna adopted the community’s lifestyle, participating in gardening and daily chores alongside meditation, before eventually returning to India and resuming his acting career.
