Photos of Sri Venkateswara Thiru Kalyanam in Chennai
Earlier this year, on 6th April 2008, the Tirumala Tirupathi Devasthanam (TTD) arranged a Kalyana Utsavam in Chennai. The grand 1 day event took place at the Island grounds. Sri U Ve Velukkudi Krishnan gave a running commentary of the proceedings in Tamil while the Thirukalyanam was being conducted.
The following photographs are screen captured from the Thiru Kalyanam VCD. I hope you enjoy them.
Narayna Narayana!

Thanks for the pictures. They look great! Looks like they had lakhs of devotees attending the event.
BUT ARE THESE THE SAME UTSAVARS THAT CAME TO SINGAPORE?
I have my reservations about this. Maybe you can help me to clarify. The utsavars in the pictures look a lot larger than the utsavars that I saw at the event after queuing for so long. It will be VERY disappointing if these are NOT THE SAME UTSAVARS that came to Singapore from Tirupati. I don’t think the actual utsavars from Tirupati leave the temple grounds right?
So what are those utsavars that are going around India?
Are they replicas of the original ones?
