Mahamandaleshwar Mamta Kulkarni of Kinnar Akhara

New Delhi: Bold and glamorous Bollywood star Mamta Kulkarni of the 90s has once again caught everyone’s attention, but this time she is in discussion about her spiritual journey. In the past, Mamta Kulkarni’s name was also included in the top actress of Bollywood, who had been living abroad for a long time. Let me tell you that during that time her name was related to many controversies and films could not come back, so now she has decided to leave the glamor world completely and become a sadhvi. After returning to India last month, Mamta Kulkarni left the worldly life by joining the ongoing Mahakumbh in Prayagraj on Friday 24 January. Mamta was awarded the title of Mahamandaleshwar as soon as he took initiation of retirement.

Recently, during the Mahakumbh Mela 2025, when the actress who retired with Kinnar Akhara was asked about the comeback in the film Inspector, she also answered it. Regarding returning to films, the actress said that doing so is now beyond her thinking. Considering the change in himself, he said that now his entire focus is on spirituality, which is a significant change from his Bollywood days. In a clear conversation with India Today, Mamta said, ‘I cannot even imagine doing films again. Now it is absolutely impossible for me. He described his spiritual journey as extremely satisfactory, and compared his honor as the Kinnar Akhara to win the Olympic medal after 23 years of devotion.

Explain that Kinnar Akhara, which represents the divine Ardhanarishwar form of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, echoed with his freedom and desire for spiritual awakening. Expressing gratitude for the blessings of Goddess Adishakti, Mamta said that her journey is directed by divine desire. During the Mahakumbh Mela, Mamta performed holy pindadan at the confluence and was crowned as Mahamandaleshwar of Kinnar Akhara. He has since adopted the name of Shri Yamai Mamta Nand Giri, and has adopted his new role as a spiritual leader. This prestigious title within the Dashanami sect is given to the respected Hindu monks appointed to promote Sanatan Dharma.

In a conversation with ANI, Mamta revealed that her decision was directed by Mahadev, Maha Kali and her guru. He shared that time was beyond his control, and emphasized that all this was part of his wish. Of a divine plan. Mamta Kulkarni, who was once known for films like Karan Arjun, stayed away from the headlines for years. His decision to adopt a spiritual life with the Kinnar Akhara by abandoning worldly activities shows a deep change, which starts a transformative chapter in his journey.
