Veteran Bollywood actor Anupam Kher took a holy dip in the Triveni Sangam at the ongoing Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj on Wednesday (January 22). On social media, the actor shared a video and shared his experience of taking the holy dip for the first time in his life.

The 69-year-old actor revealed that he chanted mantras while offering his prayers. He also stated that he got emotional and tears rolled down as he took the holy dip.

Giving a glimpse of it, he also mentioned in the caption of his post that his life has become 'successful' now.

"Taking a holy dip in the Ganga during the Mahakumbh made life feel fulfilled. For the first time, I reached the sacred confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati and chanted mantras. Tears flowed from my eyes naturally as I prayed. What a coincidence... The same happened exactly a year ago on this day during the consecration ceremony in Ayodhya," he wrote along with the video.

The veteran actor reached Prayagraj to attend the Maha Kumbh mela on Tuesday (January 21) and he has been constantly giving glimpses of his visit on social media.

During an interaction with ANI at the airport, Kher expressed his excitement about participating in the spiritual gathering. "I am here to participate in this spiritual gathering. It feels so good to see people from all walks of life here. I also applaud the Uttar Pradesh government and CM Yogi Adityanath for organising this historic festival in a responsible and safe manner," he reportedly said.

CM Yogi Adityanath also took the holy dip in Triveni Sangam on Wednesday, along with several other cabinet ministers.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Kher was last seen in Kangana Ranaut's Emergency which hit the big screens on January 17. In the movie, he essayed the role of politician and independent activist Jayprakash Narayan.
