    Overview

    Shashtipurti for families in Banjara Hills

    Shashtipurti marks the completion of sixty years of life, when the sixty year cycle of the Hindu calendar comes back to the year of one’s birth. It is one of the most important family celebrations in Telugu, Tamil and Kannada homes, and increasingly in North Indian families too.

    Banjara Hills is one of Hyderabad's longest-established upscale neighbourhoods, spread over rocky hills in the centre of the city. Its numbered roads are lined with independent houses, low-rise apartments, hospitals, corporate offices and restaurants, and Birla Mandir on Naubat Pahad is a short drive away.

    कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

    Māṅgalyaṁ tantunānena mama jīvanahetunā, kaṇṭhe badhnāmi subhage tvaṁ jīva śaradāṁ śatam.

    With this holy thread, the cause of my life, I tie the mangalya around your neck, O auspicious one. May you live for a hundred autumns.Traditional vivaha mantra

    Planning your puja in Banjara Hills

    Road No. 1 to Road No. 12 and the roads towards Panjagutta can be heavily congested at office hours; early mornings are easiest.
    Gardens or terraces in independent houses are ideal for a homam; keep the kund away from plants and dry leaves.
    Arrange parking or a drop-off point for the Pandit, as street parking can be limited on busy roads.
    For clinics or offices, check building management rules on open flames and smoke detectors.
    Share whether you prefer the explanation in Telugu, Hindi or English.
    Share the birth star and date to fix the muhurtham.
    Plan new clothes, mangalsutra and gifts for the couple as per custom.
