Stirring Devotion: Ambani’s Tirumala Kitchen Blends Tech, Tradition, and 2 Lakh Meals a Day

Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani has pledged to build a modern, fully automated kitchen in Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh, to serve sanctified meals to devotees visiting the revered Sri Venkateswara temple. The initiative, announced during Ambani’s temple visit on November 9, 2025, is part of a broader effort to support the Sri Venkateswara Anna Prasadam Trust.

The kitchen will be developed in collaboration with the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) and the Andhra Pradesh government, aligning with Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu’s vision to expand Anna Seva across all TTD temples.

Important points:

• The facility will feature advanced automation and hygiene systems  
• It will serve over 2 lakh nutritious meals daily to pilgrims  
• The initiative reinforces Reliance’s commitment to faith-driven service and community welfare  
• Ambani also donated ₹5 crore to the Guruvayur Sri Krishna temple in Kerala during his visit

This project marks a significant step in blending technology with tradition, ensuring that devotion is served with dignity and scale.
