About Neil's Navadhanya Pooja Kit

Hi! I am Neil Venkatesh, a sophomore at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and the founder of Venkatesh’s Pooja Items. I started this small business in 2021 to help families like mine keep our traditions alive, without the last-minute stress of running around for pooja supplies.

Our Navadhanya Pooja Kit is designed to make your pooja preparation simple and meaningful. It comes with all 9 essential grains, each beautifully and individually packed in colorful pouches. The colors add a festive touch, and if you have a theme or preference, I can customize the pouch colors for you too!

We also offer custom pooja kits based on your needs. Whether it is a different set of grains, specific quantities, or a unique pooja list, I will work with you to make sure everything is just right.

Running this business has been a really special experience for me. It is a way to stay connected to my culture, support others in doing the same, and share something meaningful with families across the U.S., Canada and globally. Thanks for being part of the journey!
