Actress Manisha Koirala , whose career is not exactly going great guns, is seeking inner peace through spirituality.

Manisha claims she has been a seeker of inner peace ever since she can remember. First, she sought it through traveling, books, and companionship. Now, she has acquired a strong spiritual bent of mind to reach her goal.

 However, the turning point came when a filmmaker friend of hers told her about Oneness University in Chennai. Manisha went to the university and instantly fell in love with its environment and its teachings. Leaving all the worries about her sapping acting career, Manisha immersed herself into spirituality.

Today, she finds herself “calmer and focused” than before. In fact so confident has Manisha become that she doled out some spiritual tips to Hollywood actor Gerard Butler who came to Oneness University, benefited from it, but was filled with doubts when he was on his way back.

Manisha, who has recently spent a good deal of time with her ailing father, says the teachings of Oneness University help her in dealing with all aspects of life.

And guess what! She has got a new man in her life. The mystery man is an American. And (no prizes for guessing) he, too, is spiritually inclined.

On Bollywood front, Manisha is working in director Partho Ghosh’s film Ek Second Zindagi Badal De in which she plays a double role.
