He said, “In my house, spirituality has been a guiding principle. I am a big believer of Shivji and the cosmic forces that oversee us. There are two kinds of people in the spiritual world. Those who are Believers, and those who are seekers. A believer has trust in the universe and a seeker is one who isn't but is trying to gain that trust. I have been both, and I have had some great experiences spiritually. I am ordinarily a seeker, but at times I have found myself fully immersed in God”
