Speaking about his experience, Anant said, "I want to tell the youth to have faith in Sanatan Dharma. The blessings of God have given me strength, and I have been walking for five days. In the next five days, I will reach the Dwarkadhish Temple for darshan. This is our first time undertaking this yatra. The youth should respect God and embrace Sanatan Dharma. If God is there, then there is no need to worry."
Radhika Merchant also expressed her appreciation to the supporters and well-wishers. She thanked everyone who joined Anant on his padyatra and also extended gratitude for the love shown during their wedding celebrations.

My Anant is all grown up now. The way he loves animals—I truly admire it. Love you, Anant, for your hard work towards animal safety. Enjoy your day and have a lovely birthday. Best wishes."
