Pavitra Nand Giri’s Statement on Mamta Kulkarni’s Controversial Role in Kinnar Akhara
Mamta Kulkarni, once a prominent figure in Bollywood, has once again captured public attention, but this time, it’s not for her acting career. The actress recently became the Mahamandaleshwar of Kinnar Akhara after taking sanyaas during the Maha Kumbh 2025 in Prayagraj. However, her association with the Akhara has sparked controversy, leading to her eventual removal from the position.
Controversy Surrounding Mamta Kulkarni’s Sanyaas
Mamta Kulkarni’s decision to take sanyaas and assume the post of Mahamandaleshwar raised several eyebrows. Her swift rise to prominence within the Kinnar Akhara has been met with skepticism, as many questioned her sudden involvement in such a sacred and revered role. The controversy surrounding her appointment only deepened when Pavitra Nand Giri, the Mahamandaleshwar of Kinnar Akhara, publicly condemned her actions.
Pavitra Nand Giri’s Public Clarification
In a viral video, Mahamandaleshwar Pavitra Nand Giri addressed the issue, making it clear that Mamta Kulkarni’s connection to the Kinnar Akhara was minimal. “Mamta Kulkarni has no ties to our Akhara. She is neither the founder nor a patron of it,” Pavitra Nand Giri stated. He further explained that Kulkarni had been out of the limelight for years and that her recent actions were nothing more than an attempt to regain attention. “She wanted to be in the spotlight again, and that’s why she presented herself this way,” he added.
Legal Action Threatened
Pavitra Nand Giri didn’t stop at public condemnation; he threatened to take legal action against Mamta Kulkarni. “We will issue a legal notice to her, and if necessary, we will drag her to court,” he asserted. He also challenged Kulkarni to provide evidence of any legitimate claims she might have regarding her association with the Akhara. “If she has any proof, she should present it,” he concluded.
Public Reaction to the Controversy
The video of Pavitra Nand Giri’s statement quickly gained traction on social media, sparking a flurry of reactions from netizens. While many supported his stance, questioning Mamta Kulkarni’s motives, others seemed to reminisce about the moments when Kulkarni was being honored by the Akhara. One commenter noted, “Where did this line of thinking go when you were putting the garland on her?”
Despite the mixed reactions, the ongoing debate continues to fuel the controversy surrounding Mamta Kulkarni’s unexpected journey to becoming the Mahamandaleshwar of Kinnar Akhara.
