Speaking to ANI, Katrina expressed her gratitude and excitement about being part of the sacred event. “I am very fortunate that I could come here this time. I am really happy and grateful. I met Swami Chidanand Saraswati and took his blessings. I am just starting my experience here. I like the energy, beauty, and significance of everything.

Her mother-in-law accompanied Katrina. Her husband, Vicky Kaushal, was recently spotted taking a holy dip at Maha Kumbh. Other celebrities who have attended the congregation include names such as Esha Gupta, Vijay Deverakonda and Hema Malini.
Mahakumbh Mela started on January 13, 2025, in Uttar Pradesh’s Prayagraj and is set to conclude on February 26. Several devotees have flocked to the Triveni Sangam—the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers—to take the holy dip, seeking spiritual cleansing and ‘Moksha’.
According to reports from the Uttar Pradesh government’s Information Department, nearly 630 million people had visited the holy site as of Sunday.
