In a seamless fusion of holistic well-being and upscale hospitality, the Ridhira Group recently hosted an exclusive International Yoga Day celebration at their tranquil Ridhira Retreat in Gandipet. The event drew together wellness enthusiasts and special guests for an afternoon dedicated to mindfulness and connection.
The gathering perfectly aligned with this year’s official International Yoga Day theme, “Yoga for One Earth, One Health,” as proclaimed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, emphasizing yoga’s role in promoting sustainability and global well-being. The retreat beautifully echoed this sentiment, underscoring the intrinsic link between individual wellness and planetary harmony.
A Journey of Rejuvenation and Self-Discovery


The event commenced with a deeply immersive and calming Soulful Yoga & Spa session, led by Advanced Yoga Teacher Vikas Shenoy. Participants engaged in mindful movement and breathwork amidst the retreat’s natural surroundings. To ensure a comfortable experience, guests arrived in appropriate yoga attire, with mats thoughtfully provided by the organizers. The retreat’s overarching theme, “Breathe | Stretch | Reconnect,” resonated throughout the day, from the harmonious arrangement of yoga mats to the carefully planned interactions among attendees.
Further enhancing the holistic experience, guests had the opportunity for one-on-one sessions with Health & Wellness Coach Aamani Reddy, who provided practical wellness guidance through personalized nutrition coaching. Attendees also indulged in rejuvenating foot reflexology and relaxing massages by Ode Spa, creating a true sanctuary of revitalization.
A highlight of the day was an immersive Sound Healing session conducted by the renowned Sound Healer Kaavya Bhagchandani. Participants were introduced to the profound therapeutic power of sonic vibrations, as Kaavya guided the group through a meditative journey using instruments like singing bowls and gongs. This session aimed at facilitating emotional release, fostering inner harmony, and promoting deep relaxation.
The serene ambiance of the retreat was further enhanced by a captivating live three-piece instrumental performance, featuring the sitar, santoor, and tabla. This musical interlude beautifully blended traditional Indian melodies with Gandipet’s tranquil setting. Following the sessions, participants savored a delicious yet healthy high tea, meticulously curated to nourish both body and soul.
Pioneering Wellness-Driven Hospitality


Reflecting on the occasion, Mr. Ritesh Mastipuram, Founder of Ridhira Group, shared, “Our focus is to redefine wellness not merely as an occasional escape, but as a lifestyle deeply rooted in intentional living. This Yoga Day wasn’t just a celebration; it was a profound reminder to pause, breathe, and reconnect deeply with ourselves. Our serene setting in Gandipet, close to Hyderabad yet embraced by nature, provided the perfect backdrop for this experience.”
He added, “This initiative is part of a broader movement. Today, we are witnessing a conscious shift towards wellness-led getaways, catering not only to individuals but also to professionals, influencers, and families. Ridhira is dedicated to establishing such sanctuaries, where well-being is not an indulgence, but an inherent way of life.”
The retreat unequivocally reaffirmed Ridhira Group’s standing as a pioneer in wellness-driven hospitality, where sustainability, personalization, and soulful luxury converge in perfect harmony. With similar experiences planned throughout the year, the Group aims to extend this wellness narrative beyond Hyderabad, forging connections between nature and modern living across India.
The entire experience was meticulously curated by the Ridhira Group through its specialized verticals: Ridhira Retreat, Ode Spa Wellness, and Ridhira Wellness Real Estate. Each of these entities is renowned for championing sustainable luxury and holistic well-being.
