Bollywood actor Himansh Kohli recently took to Instagram to share his delightful experiences from a visit to Patna, Bihar. The actor, who appeared enthusiastic about his time in the city, posted multiple images showcasing his interactions with local officials, university students, and media personalities.
MEANINGFUL MEETINGS AND ACADEMIC INTERACTIONS
Himansh’s visit included a significant meeting with Honorable Maheshwar Hazari, where the two engaged in what the actor described as an “inspiring chat.” The actor didn’t elaborate on the specific topics discussed during their meeting, but his post reflected positive sentiments about the interaction.
A highlight of Himansh’s trip was his visit to Amity University, where he connected with faculty members and students. “From an inspiring chat with Hon. Maheshwar Hazari ji to the warmth of Amity’s brilliant faculties & some of the most talented, driven, and effortlessly cool students I’ve met — Patna, you truly showed love!” the actor wrote in his Instagram caption.
FILM SCREENING RECEIVES ENTHUSIASTIC RESPONSE
During his university visit, Himansh screened his short film ‘Gahvara’ for the students. The screening appears to have deeply moved the actor, as he expressed being “amazed to see the students’ reactions” and appreciated “their thoughts, questions, and passion.”
This isn’t the first time ‘Gahvara’ has received recognition. In a previous Instagram post from earlier this month, Himansh had shared: “From a small idea to a big festival! Gahvara has been nominated at the Ahmedabad International Film Festival, and I, Himansh Kohli, along with my entire cast, crew, and team Happy Cow Films, couldn’t be happier.”
MEDIA ENGAGEMENTS AND CITY EXPLORATION
Beyond academic settings, Himansh also visited local radio stations, engaging with RJs at City FM and Radio Mirchi. He described these interactions as a “blast,” suggesting the media engagements were enjoyable and lively.
The actor also took time to explore Patna, mentioning “scenic drives” and “vibrant vibes” that created lasting memories. His caption, which begins with the Bhojpuri phrase “Patna aa ke dilwa khush ho gail!” (Coming to Patna has made my heart happy!), captures his fondness for the city.
SPIRITUAL CONNECTIONS DURING BIHAR VISIT
While not mentioned in his most recent post, Himansh had earlier shared his visit to Takhat Shri Harimandir Ji Patna Sahib on April 16, 2025. The sacred site clearly held significance for the actor, as he captioned that post: “Where Every step feels like a prayer.” This suggests his Patna trip included both professional engagements and spiritual experiences.
RECENT CAREER DEVELOPMENTS
Himansh Kohli, who gained popularity with his debut film ‘Yaariyan’ in 2014, has been focusing on diverse projects recently. Earlier this month, he expressed gratitude as ‘Yaariyan’ returned to theaters, thanking director Divya Khosla Kumar, stating “for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to be a part of her debut, which also happened to be mine.”
The actor’s short film ‘Gahvara’ appears to be a significant project in his current portfolio, with festival nominations suggesting critical recognition for his work.
The actor’s multi-faceted visit to Bihar’s capital—combining official meetings, academic interactions, media engagements, and cultural experiences—seems to have left him with fond memories, as summed up in his heartfelt post about the city.
