Anupam Kher, another well-known actor, shared a video of his experience as well. He wrote a touching caption, saying, “Life became successful by taking a bath in Ganga in Mahakumbh!! Reached the place where Mother Ganga, Jamuna, and Saraswati meet for the first time. While praying, tears themselves started flowing from the eyes. Look at the coincidence! The same thing happened exactly one year ago today, on the day of Pran Pratishthan in Ayodhya! Jai Sanatan Dharma.”
