Rock icon Chris Martin and actress Dakota Johnson made a surprising appearance at Mahakumbh 2025 in Prayagraj, where they immersed themselves in local rituals by taking a holy dip at the Triveni Sangam. Captured on video and shared by a fan on Instagram, the couple was seen respectfully engaging in the sacred traditions of the festival, with Martin sporting black shorts and Johnson dressed in a traditional kurta and trousers. Their unexpected participation in the rituals came shortly after Coldplay’s Republic Day concert in Ahmedabad, adding an intriguing cultural crossover between global music and India’s ancient spiritual heritage.
The viral video has ignited a flurry of reactions on social media, with many users playfully remarking that the artist’s appearance was a clever alternative to attending a concert. Comments such as “Concert to bahana tha, Coldplay ko Mahakumbh aana tha” and praises for Martin’s sincere approach to the rituals underscore the public’s delight in seeing a global superstar embrace local traditions. This blend of pop culture and spirituality at one of India’s most revered festivals highlights the universal appeal of faith and the surprising ways in which cultural boundaries can merge.
