In April 2026, Anant Ambani visited the Guruvayur and Rajarajeshwara temples in Kerala, donating a total of Rs 6 crore—Rs 3 crore each—to the temple trusts.

He contributed Rs 12 crore for the comprehensive renovation of the historic Rajarajeshwara Temple eastern gopuram, a structure of immense aesthetic and archaeological significance believed to be as ancient as the temple itself.

Anant Ambani unveiled a comprehensive initiative focused on elephant welfare at Guruvayur. The plan includes the development of a dedicated elephant hospital.

Anant Ambani donated Rs 10 crore for gaushala at Kashtabhanjan Dev Hanumanji Temple in Gujarat’s Salangpur. His contribution will support the welfare and care of cows.

As part of the celebrations, Chappan Bhog was offered to more than 1 lakh cows housed in Panjrapol gaushalas across India. 

The initiative covered cities including Rajkot, Nashik, Chennai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, and Hyderabad, among others. 

Anant distributed school kits (bags, books, stationery) and food to over 3,000 children across Jamnagar and nearby villages.

Covered one year of teaching expenses for more than 30 schools in the region as part of his birthday initiative.

At Hathi Gaon in Jaipur, a major welfare initiative was held at Jaipur’s Hathi Gaon (Elephant Village), focusing on enhancing health infrastructure and support for over 80 elephants and their caretakers.

For those unversed, Anant Ambani is the founder of Vantara- a 3,500-acre wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and conservation centre in Jamnagar, Gujarat, that is considered one of the largest of its kind in the world. The facility houses over 200 species, including elephants, tigers and leopards rescued from abuse and neglect.
