Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 2 : Bollywood actor Preity Zinta recently visited the Maha Kumbh and later traveled to Varanasi to celebrate Mahashivratri with her mother.

The 'Veer-Zaara' actress has now shared her experiences, emotions, and the lessons she learned from the journey.

Preity took to her Instagram account on Sunday to share a compilation of videos and pictures along with a lengthy note describing the trip as an adventure. She also revealed how her mother wanted to "wrap up" their Maha Kumbh visit by seeking blessings at the Kashi Vishwanath temple.

The actress also shared how, due to the "heavy crowds," they had to leave their car behind and switch to an auto-rickshaw, then a cycle-rickshaw, before finally walking through the packed streets of Varanasi.

Sharing how deeply moved she was by the positive energy of the people around her, Preity wrote, "What an adventure this trip has been. Mom wanted to wrap up our Maha Kumbh trip in Varanasi for Shivratri. So I told her, of course, Ma, let's go. Once we got there, we found out that due to heavy crowds, cars were not allowed, and roads were blocked after a point, so people could walk and do darshan at the Kashi Vishwanath temple. We decided we would go for it. From sitting in a car to an auto rickshaw to a cycle rickshaw, we did it all and more as we walked forever in crazy crowds."

The actress also shared that one of the most special moments for her was seeing her mother's happiness during the trip. She wrote, "It wasn't the destination but the journey that was important. It was my mom's shining smile I took back with me as Mahadev's blessing, and it was beyond precious. I love you, Ma."
