Bhuvan Bam, who gained fame through his YouTube channel BB Ki Vines, where he portrays various characters in humorous skits, has also made a mark in acting with roles in “Dhindora” and “Taaza Khabar.” In a recent interview, he delved into his personal and professional life.
Bhuvan Bam Reflects on Losing His Parents
In an appearance on We Are Yuvaa’s “Be A Man, Yaar” talk show, Bhuvan opened up about the profound impact of losing both his parents to COVID-19 within a month. He revealed that he still struggles to come to terms with their loss and avoids discussing it to prevent spiraling into deep sadness. He shared:
“I don’t talk much about it because thinking about it just takes me down a dark path. This dark spiral comes around every two weeks, sometimes more often. It usually hits me on the best days.”
“Isliye zyada baat bhi nahi karta uss baare mein. Kyunki jis gali jaana hi nahi hai, kyunki woh gali seedha neeche hai, spiral hai woh. Woh spiral aa jaata hai do hafte mein ek baar, kabhi kabhi aa jaata hai. Ek to aata hi hai sabse achche din pe.”
After a moment of reflection, Bhuvan expressed that while the loss is undeniable, dwelling on it has no practical benefit. This marks the first time he has publicly addressed the tragic event since it occurred in June 2021:
“There’s nothing to say now, it happened. It’s fine… I don’t see any benefit in overthinking it.”
“Kya bole ab, Sahi hain yaar. Ho gaya. Badhiya… Sochta hi nahi main ab fayda nahi hain.”
Bhuvan Bam on His Father’s Struggles
During the same conversation, Bhuvan also discussed his late father’s struggles with alcoholism. He attempted to understand the root of his father’s issue but was met with resistance. Bhuvan recounted instances where his father’s behavior disrupted his fans waiting outside his home. He said:
“People wondered why he was drinking at noon. I tried to get him to stop, but he insisted on being left alone. He was accustomed to it and didn’t want interference.”
“Naturally aap puchte ho ki, ‘Kya ho gaya’ dopahar ke 12 baje, dopahar ke 12 baje kaun peeta hai? Kya chakkar batao? Abhi 10 million ka cake kata hain, parson, abhi hum soch rahe hain ki yahan jayenge, vahan jayenge, phir abhi 12 baje kyun fir unhein bola yaar, ‘Ye ab aadat hai. This is I think I’m habitual to this and I… want you guys to not intervene. Let me be, I’m very happy for all of you, just don’t interfere, simple.’ Maine kaha ab iske baad kya bolu. Jabardasti cheen nahi sakte, baap hain. “
Over three years have passed since Bhuvan lost both his parents. On June 12, 2021, he shared the heartbreaking news on Instagram, describing the devastation he felt and his struggle to move forward. He posted poignant pictures with his parents and reflected on the impact of their loss.
We hope Bhuvan Bam finds comfort and healing as he navigates this challenging time in his life.
