Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar made a significant spiritual journey today by visiting the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. Dressed in a simple white kurta-pajama, the actor participated in the sacred ritual of taking a ‘shahi snaan’ (royal bath) at the Triveni Sangam, the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers. This visit comes just ahead of Mahashivratri, which is set to be celebrated on February 26, 2025.
The Maha Kumbh Mela, held once every 144 years, is witnessing its grand conclusion on Mahashivratri. Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya highlighted the significance of this event, noting the successful culmination of the festival and extending a warm welcome to all devotees arriving in Prayagraj.
Akshay Kumar’s visit underscores his deep spiritual connection, especially following the loss of his mother. In a previous interview, he expressed how his bond with Lord Shiva has strengthened, stating, “The connection I have with Lord Shiva has strengthened since losing my mother. He calms my soul.”
