Upasana Kamineni Konidela, an entrepreneur and wife of actor Ram Charan, often shares her spiritual endeavours on Instagram. From celebrating Janmashtami with her family to a recent visit to the Kamakhya Devi Temple, the businesswoman often shares glimpses of her devotion.
However, the Founder and Managing Director of URLife recently revealed that she had commissioned a Lord Rama idol from Arun Yogiraj, the sculptor behind the revered Ram Lalla murti at the Ayodhya temple.

Taking to Instagram, Upasana Konidela revealed that she completed her Sundara Kandam Parayana, the recitation of the Sundara Kanda, the fifth book of the Hindu epic Ramayana, on September 21.
On the same day, the murti that she had commissioned from Arun Yogiraj was also completed. "Today, as I complete my Sundara Kandam Parayana, something truly special happened," she wrote in the caption.
The entrepreneur revealed that she had commissioned the idol from Arun Yogiraj, the sculptor of the Ram Lalla idol at the Ayodhya Temple, about a year ago. It was a special project for her 93-year-old grandfather.
"Over a year ago, I commissioned Arun Yogiraj ji, the sculptor of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya, to create a special Sri Rama murti for my 93-year-old Thatha, whose lifelong devotion to the Sundara Kandam has always inspired me," she revealed.
The day she completed her parayana, the idol was also ready. "I don't believe this is a coincidence. I believe it is divine timing," Upasana Kamineni Konidela, who welcomed a daughter in June 2023, added.
She signed the caption with a wish that Lord Rama and Lord Hanuman give everyone the strength to face every challenge with grace and unwavering faith.
