Overview
Pitru Dosha Puja for families in Shamshabad
Pitru Dosha Puja is a traditional puja performed to honour the ancestors and seek their peace and blessings. In Vedic astrology, Pitru Dosha is a term used for certain planetary combinations that are traditionally linked with unfulfilled duties towards ancestors. Many families also perform the puja simply when regular Shraddha has not been possible.
Shamshabad lies on the southern edge of Hyderabad, best known as the location of Rajiv Gandhi International Airport. Once a small town on the Bengaluru highway, it now has new residential layouts, apartment projects, farmhouses and hotels serving travellers.
ॐ पितृभ्यः स्वधायिभ्यः स्वधा नमः॥
Oṁ pitṛbhyaḥ svadhāyibhyaḥ svadhā namaḥ.
Planning your puja in Shamshabad
If you are flying in or out, share your flight timings so the ritual can be planned with enough buffer.
The ORR and airport road are usually quick, but allow extra time for Pandits coming from the city.
Farmhouses and open plots suit homams; arrange shade, seating and water.
Share a pinned location, as newer layouts and farmhouses can be hard to find.
