Overview

Ayyappa Puja for families in Andheri

Ayyappa Puja is the worship of Lord Ayyappa, also called Dharma Sastha and Manikanta, the deity of the Sabarimala temple in Kerala. Every year, from around November to January, lakhs of devotees across South India keep a strict deeksha of prayer, simplicity and discipline before making the pilgrimage.

Andheri is one of the largest and busiest suburbs of Mumbai, split by the Western Railway line into Andheri West, with Lokhandwala, Four Bungalows, Versova and Oshiwara, and Andheri East, with its commercial areas around MIDC, Marol, Chakala and the airport side. Metro Line 1 runs from Versova across Andheri to Ghatkopar, linking the western and central suburbs.

Planning Your Puja in Andheri

Traffic on the Western Express Highway, SV Road and Andheri Kurla Road can be heavy, so allow extra time for the Pandit to reach you.
Most towers have gate entry rules; share your building name, wing and flat number on WhatsApp.
Check society rules before planning a havan, as many buildings prefer a small kund with good ventilation.
Chhath and Ganesh visarjan days at Juhu and Versova are very crowded; plan travel and parking in advance.
Mention whether you want explanation in Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati or English.
