Mamta, going ahead in the interview, revealed her thoughts after becoming revered Mahamandaleshwar. She said that the people of Kinnar Akhada represent the Ardhnareshwar avatar of Lord Shiva and goddess Parvati. In her words:

"Becoming a Mahamandaleshwar of such Akhada is like an Olympic medal after 23 years of my spiritual practice. It's only with the blessings of the Goddess Adishakti that I have been bestowed with this honour. I chose to be a part of the Kinnar Akhada because it represents freedom. There are no restrictions here."

Hemangi Sakhi Maa objects Mamta's Mahamandaleshwar's ritual

Hemangi Sakhi Maa of Kinnar Mahamandaleshwar is not happy and has objected Mamta's Mahamandaleshwar ceremony. During an interview with ANI, she said that the Kinnar Akhada was formed for the Kinnar community. In her words:

"But now, a woman has been inducted into the Kinnar Akhada. If it is Kinnar Akhada and you have started giving positions to women, then rename the Akhada."

She even raised questions about Mamta's alleged affairs with the underworld gang. Sakhi Maa noted that Mamta Kulkarni's background should have been looked into. She returned to India suddenly, her videos went viral. She arrived at Kumbh suddenly, her videos went viral. And then she is anointed as Mahamandaleshwar. Sakhi Maa wanted to know the facts behind the same and strongly condemned Mamta's spiritual transformation.
