The entire ceremony was conducted with proper Vedic rituals by the descendant priests of Rai Bahadur Gopal Lal Barik. The Pind Daan rituals lasted for around three hours. Acharya Vinod, who performed the ceremony, mentioned that the actor was quite emotional and even performed a special offering (Tarpan) in his mother’s name.
After performing the sacred rituals, Kichcha said, “When I saw the holy feet of Lord Vishnu, I felt an incredible sense of inner peace. I had heard that performing Pind Daan in Gaya helps the departed soul attain salvation, and that’s why I came here.” He was accompanied by his wife and nephew during the rituals.

Smiling, he said, “I don’t even remember when I last visited Bihar… but this is my first visit to Gaya. The sanctity and atmosphere of this place have truly touched my heart.” The arrival of this popular film star in Gaya not only became a topic of conversation among the locals but also beautifully reflected the confluence of religious faith and cinematic charm.
