A Day Chosen with Auspicious Intent

The founders of Hari Krishna Exports light the diyas with steady grace, creating a serene and meaningful beginning to the mass wedding ceremonies. Every year, Hari Krishna Group holds its Mass Wedding Festival during the sacred period of Krishna Paksha, a time that represents humility, gratitude, and service.This year, the event took place on Utpanna Ekadashi, one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar — a day believed to bring purity, peace, and divine blessings. Falling under Krishna Paksha Dvadashi, the timing carried special significance, chosen to bless couples as they begin their new life together with hope and faith.
Empowering Lives Through Marriage
The Mass Wedding Festival is not only a celebration but also a way to bring real change.
All wedding arrangements are organised by the Group at no cost to the couples. Each couple also receives gold ornaments, silverware, and essential household items, helping them start their new home with comfort and confidence.
Through this initiative, Hari Krishna Group continues to strengthen its belief that true responsibility lies in supporting people and helping them begin life with dignity.
Blessings and Participation

The visionary founder of Hari Krishna Exports, Savjibhai Dholakia, along with second-generation leaders Dravyabhai and Hitarthbhai Dholakia, offers a warm and dignified blessing to the couple during the ceremony.
The event was attended by more than 2,500 people, including families, community members, and the company’s senior leadership.

Speaking at the occasion, our visionary founder, Savji Dholakia, shared: “In his address at this year’s ceremony, he shares that the real celebration is seeing his people step into a new life with dignity and self-respect.”
A Continuing Legacy of Compassion
