Bageshwar Baba’s Marriage Buzz: The Seer Who Says His Family Is Planning It, Not Him
In an age when godmen and kathavachaks often find themselves at the center of headlines, Dhirendra Shastri of Bageshwar Dham remains a figure both mystical and magnetic — and once again, in the news for his supposed marriage plans.
In a recent interaction with news agency ANI, the self-styled seer, who claims to be blessed by Lord Hanuman, was asked about the long-running question surrounding his marriage.
With his characteristic half-smile, Shastri responded, Hum toh nahi kar rahe hain, pariwaar wale karwa rahe hain — I’m not doing it, but my family is getting it done.”
When pressed further about when the wedding might happen, he laughed lightly and said, Pata nahi ab kab karwaye ge woh, par karwaye ge woh — I don’t know when they’ll do it, but they surely will.”
The interviewer quipped that the nation wants to know about his marriage. Shastri, however, deftly turned the conversation to a higher plane.
“Iss desh mein humare iss mudde se zyada bade mudde hain — raastra ka mudda hai, berozgaari ka mudda hai, siksha ka mudda hai, swasth ka mudda hai.”
“There are far greater concerns in this country — national issues, unemployment, education, and health.”
The video clip, unsurprisingly, went viral — as everything about Bageshwar Baba tends to do.
From Rumors to Revelation
This is not the first time speculation has swirled around the young seer’s personal life.
Earlier too, rumors of his impending marriage had circulated on social media and in local circles, but Shastri repeatedly refuted them, maintaining that such matters would unfold only with divine and familial consent.
During the Times Now Summit 2025, he had remarked, My parents and Guruji will decide this. Right now, my focus is on fulfilling the dreams I see while awake.”
That statement reflected the very duality that defines him — part ascetic, part rising modern spiritual celebrity.
The Guru Behind the Phenomenon
What truly sets Dhirendra Shastri apart from the growing tribe of TV-famous kathavachaks is his spiritual lineage.
He is a devoted disciple of Swami Rambhadracharya of Chitrakoot, a saint whose life story borders on the miraculous.
Swami Rambhadracharya lost his eyesight at an early age, yet he has mastered every major Hindu and Sanatan scripture — Vedas, Upanishads, Ramcharitmanas, Mahabharata, Bhagavad Gita, and countless others — to such an extent that he can recite verses and instantly identify their exact source.
The sheer vastness of his knowledge defies human imagination.
Listeners often leave his discourses in awe and reverence, convinced that divine grace flows through him.
It is said that Swami Rambhadracharya so deeply pleased Lord Hanuman through devotion and austerity that his words never fail to manifest into truth.
Dhirendra Shastri frequently visits his Guru in Chitrakoot and openly credits him as the spiritual force behind his meteoric rise.
Indeed, the foundation of Shastri’s popularity — and his claimed siddhis of revealing people’s past, present, and future — rests upon his Guru’s blessing.
Notably, Swami Rambhadracharya has also founded a university for the visually impaired, blending scholarship, service, and spirituality — a model of what true sainthood looks like in modern times.
A Seer with a Scriptural Soul
Dhirendra Shastri may be known today as a celebrity kathavachak, but what draws thousands to his divya darbar is not just his storytelling — it is his uncanny ability to read lives as if from an unseen cosmic ledger.
Devotees claim he calls them from the crowd and narrates intimate details of their past, diagnoses their present struggles, and predicts their future paths — all in the name of Lord Hanuman.
Whether one believes in the miraculous or not, there’s no denying that the saga of Bageshwar Baba combines charisma, lineage, and faith in a way few contemporary seers manage.
And as for his much-discussed marriage? The Baba smiles — his family may be preparing, destiny may be writing — but for now, he prefers to let Hanuman decide the hour.
