Annachatra

       Saiprema

         Located near to Sai Baba Temple in Shirgaon, the Annachatra – also called the Rajwada (the Palace) is an architectural marvel, where devotees have 'Maha-Prasada' every afternoon. The Rajawada’s uniqueness lies in its construction type. Built by using joint moulds, the 14,000 square foot 3-storey building has no bricks at all! Hundreds of skilled workers from Mumbai, Pune and Kankavli worked round-the-clock for two years under the supervision of founder trustee, Shri Prakash Deole, and the guidance of architect, Shri Vivek Khatavkar. The result is a human marvel, which according to Shri Deole, will soon find a mention in the Guinness World Records for its artistic splendour.
             At the entrance stand two giant elephants with their trunks held high, welcoming the devotees for the Maha Prasad. The entrance or the 'Maha Dwar' leads to the main dining area which is equally impressive. The interspread carvings of flowers and peacocks on walls and pillars glow under brightly-lit chandeliers, as cool air wafts in and helps one relax, inducing a loving absorption in Sai contemplation.


            The kitchen on the right-hand side is a spacious and clean place that can serve 1500 devotees at a time. The first floor dining is equally big. The top floor houses eight exclusive suites reserved for the VIPs. Deole says: “Sai Baba was the king of kings. The Annachatra ensures that Baba's followers also get a kingly treatment."
