Will Mamta Kulkarni Leave Her Husband After Sanyas?
Soon after Mamta Kulkarni announced her sanyas, people started wondering will she leave her husband after this.
But here’s the catch. Not many people are aware that Kinnar Akhada is different from the 13 popular Akahada of Hindu Samaj, and hence it has different rules than the rest.
If anyone joins this group, then they can enjoy the benefits of a Sanyasi and can live a normal life as well at the same time.
Hence, Mamta Kulkarni can still be with her husband and family and enjoy her married life alongside being a sanyasi.
