Pujas, darshan & donations for the UK diaspora.
Built for the UK Hindu, Jain & Sikh diaspora. Book pujas at any Indian temple, watch live aarti darshan, donate with a donation receipt emailed to you — all from your UK bank card. Prices below are shown in £ for reference; you are charged in INR, so your bank applies its own rate. No hidden surcharge, no "call our India office".
A native GBP checkout is on the roadmap — today you can book with a UK card and be billed in INR. Email below to get notified when £ pricing goes live in your postcode.
Why UK devotees use Darshya
Sri Mandir is built for India domestic. The UK Hindu diaspora needs different things: £ reference pricing, GMT-aware aarti schedules, video proof your relatives in India can actually watch, and support that responds in your timezone.
Book with a UK card
Billing is in INR (UPI, Indian cards, net banking). UK cards and a native GBP rail are coming soon.
Indian temple bookings from anywhere in the UK
Rudrabhishek at Kashi Vishwanath, Satyanarayan at Tirupati, Lakshmi Puja at home temple — booked from London at IST timings.
Live aarti darshan, GMT/BST adjusted
Watch live aarti from Indian temples on your schedule. Calendar shows IST → GMT auto-converted.
Video proof on every puja
Priest uploads sankalp + main ritual + aarti video. Your grandmother in Ahmedabad sees the same proof as you in Wembley.
A numbered receipt on every donation
Every donation gets a numbered receipt PDF by email. It is proof of payment, not a tax-exemption certificate: Darshya holds no Section 80G registration yet, so nothing donated today can be claimed as an 80G deduction. UK Gift Aid is not supported either, so treat a donation here as a gift rather than a relievable payment.
WhatsApp support — UK timezone
Customer support response by 10am GMT. Real human, not a bot.

Sample pujas in £
These are our live catalogue prices — the amount a devotee booking from India pays. A devotee booking as an NRI pays 2.5 times that amount, in rupees, shown in US dollars on the puja and booking pages. The £ figures here are a reference conversion of the domestic price, not a quote in £.
Puja prices are temporarily unavailable.
