Bobby Brazier has embarked on a spiritual journey, stepping away from the world of showbiz to pursue a new life in India.

There is a deeper story behind his decision. The EastEnders star, 22, left the BBC soap earlier this year and spent the summer fully immersing himself in the Hare Krishna faith after experiencing a period of personal ups and downs, involving his father Jeff and brother Freddie.

Bobby later appeared to reconcile with his father and now has taken to Instagram to show the positive impact his pilgrimage has had in him. 

In the clip, Bobby is seen joining devotees and monks in the uplifting group dance.

He captioned the post: ‘Watching these videos back and still after all I have experienced so far in the world, I am thinking surely it doesn’t get any better than this…surely? ‘This is the pleasure that the soul is running after. 

‘To chant and dance in the association of devotees who have such a deep, loving devotion toward the Lord, who is non-different from his name, is an experience that the material world just doesn’t offer.’ 

Meanwhile, Bobby’s dad Jeff left a playful comment in response to his son’s dance moves, writing:’I used to dance like that to garage.’
