The source of this popular mango is Tekani village of Khoragach in Mithapukur upazila of Rangpur. There is a well-known legend about the naming of broken mangoes.

Initially, this mango was named Maldia. He made a filter with earthen pots under the tree to water the mango tree. One day, who will break this pot of soil? The tree continues to grow in the broken pot and catches a lot of mangoes during the season. When this delicious mango was taken to the market for sale, farmer Nafal Uddin said that this delicious variety of mango has been grown from the tree of the broken pot. Since then, this tree has become known as the haribhanga mango tree.
