Hyderabad: While the Maha Kumbh mela has many sadhus and naga sadhus who are the centre of attraction, there’s also the ‘Most beautiful Sadhvi’ who’s gone viral.
The sadhavi, identified as Harsha Richhariya, is however an Instagram influencer who has adopted this new identity, in search of ‘sakoon’ and turned to spirituality two years ago.
Says the 30-year-old, “I left everything I had to do to adopt this new identity, in search of ‘sakoon’ (peace of mind) and turned into sadhavi.”
Her interview to a reporter and the video is being widely shared as ‘Most Beautiful Sadhvi’.
