The most popular story associated with the Kumbh Mela at Prayagraj, Haridwar, Nashik and Ujjain is that of the pot of nectar that emerged from the samudramanthan (churning of the ocean) by the gods and the asuras. While there are several references to this tale in the epics and the Puranas, there is neither a mention of four drops of nectar falling on earth nor of the Kumbh as a festival (Photo Source: Puneet Wadhwani)
