Former Bollywood actor and model Mamta Kulkarni has returned to Mumbai after 25 years, embarking on a profound spiritual journey coinciding with the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj. The 52-year-old, now known as Shri Yamai Mamta Nandgiri, has embraced a life of ‘sanyas’ (renunciation).
Mamta Kulkarni’s New Journey as Mahamandleshwar
The Kinnar Akhada, a prominent spiritual sect, has appointed Mamta as a Mahamandleshwar, a highly revered position in their order. Hundreds of devotees gathered to witness her coronation, a significant moment that highlights her new spiritual path.
Social Media and Upcoming Participation
Mamta has shared her journey through social media, posting videos and photos of herself in saffron robes, symbolizing her renunciation of worldly life.
She is also set to participate in the sacred Mauni Amavasya Snan on January 29, a significant bathing ritual at the Maha Kumbh, where millions of devotees seek spiritual purification.
From Stardom to Spirituality
Mamta Kulkarni, known for her Bollywood performances during the 1990s, married Vicky Goswami and moved to Kenya. However, their life took a controversial turn when they were named prime accused in a multi-crore drug racket.
