Online Ticket Booking FAQs
Sir yesterday we have booked 6 tickets of 300rs special darshan yesterday for 21st 6pm and successfully completed. But we did not get any information if timings or details by our mail or mobile. When we checked in the website it is showing confirmed but we don’t know the timings and the entrance place. Kindly help us with full details.
@JP Krishna, did you download the confirmation ticket.. Since 300 Rs. is a new ticket not a lot of information available at present, we will update them soon. We have contacted the officials regarding that and we will be updating shortly. In the mean time go earlier (1 to 2hrs early) to make sure you don’t miss on the darshan.
Sir, Tried booking 300 rupees tickets on the website.. After long wait, updated all details.. I am from Mumbai and clicked Maharashtra state. In drop down box of districts, there is no option to select Mumbai as the drop down box has only Tamil Nadu districts… So booking is not being taken for outside state? If I click Chennai, then it moves forward but says error as I have put Maharashtra state and Chennai District.. So unable to book tickets… Also website speed is pathetic.. See and learn from IRCTC website and they too handle lakhs of bookings every day.. It’s unfair for outside state visitors as the website has no option for the same
@Sridhar yes website is not good and ticketing system is not good. Outside visitors can book but it’s tedious as the developers have not updated districts of other sites. I think you can do free darshan if you plan a visit to Kanchipuram
U come sir I will arrange
Contact 9943074545
dear sir can arrange 4 ticket for atti varadhar dharshan sir im from chennai
sir how to book….the date and timings doesn’t gets highlighted for sahasranama booking. how to book 300rs ticket………….kindly guide me
Can you please share the flow after accepting the terms and conditions and submit … Once i submitted the system says loading for the past 1 hr.
Sure we can do that in our next news, but to be frank the website has a poor booking system.
Can you let us know steos you followed
Its not working now as the server is clogged up
How did you book..Im trying for 3 days i cant book. It always says too many requests error
@Bala some people are lucky to get it. Just keep trying or go for free darshan. At present the crowd is controlled so free darshan should not take you more than 4 hours.
@JP Krishna congratulation for successful booking, i am trying fr the last 10 days but it come only up to clicking the term and conditions, then never proceeds further, (like request 13…) Please guide and give some tips on how to book. Internet speed ins also okay. Thankyou @k_dakshin69
Hello ji can you say how to book more than 1 person and if that possible, how many people can we add.. i can see ADD nxt to age but it doesn’t work for me..
We could not book even a single ticket.
Yes we have encountered the same. The site has a poor booking system
i have entered aadhar details atleast 20 times and each time when submit button pressed, it shows different problem messages and not even once my submission was successful. Very disheartening and probably the system is designed for few to take advantage. Booking gets over in a jiffy
I agree with whatever you said, the ticketing system is bad and just 500 tickets is even worse. This is a pure gamble. I hope they add more tickets in coming days.
I tried for 2 hours but was not successful. Can you help with options to be done for booking
Hello sir,
If we made online donation is it acceptable for dharshan. Or shall we need to get separate donor pass for having dharshan.

You can book for 4 days in advance

TIA
@Saranya there is a separate Queue for Senior citizens and this queue apply for infants too.. Still you will be waiting for 2 hrs. But that’s better than a 7hr wait in a general queue.
Day before yesterday, my transaction went upto payment gateway and failed after few hours. But now am getting following errors while booking:-
1-Too many requests already, try again later
2-Token mismatch
Kindly confirm above errors are due to existing of my Aadhaar number (bcos of failure in payment gateway). If so what to do further……
No this has nothing to do with your payment failure. Clear your Cache and try again
Without Aadhar card can I book ticket
No you need Aadhar card and they use to verify the ticket.
Can I book without Aadhar card

August 27 / 28th will be the last day. But heavy crowd is expected during those days.
DEAR SIR,
IN GENARAL QUEUE, HOW MANY HOURS WAITING FOR DHARSAN ( IN SATURDAYS)
@Kumaresan weekends are always heavily crowded.. It also depends on what time you start in the Queue, usually takes anywhere between 5 to 7 hrs.
In saharsanama archan after entering all details if I submit in first page, it comes as failed to save. What to do now. Am I doing any mistake or site has problem.
This is maybe due to server issues as many are accessing it.

I want to book athivaradhar dharson 300/-rs online booking for two Malaysian citizen. Is it possible to booking.kindly give reply sir
@Raghavan sorry these tickets are for indians only as Aadhar card is mandatory
Hi sir,
We need to book 4 tickets, so may i know we need a sepearte adhaar card for each person or else we can book using single persons adhaar card for the entire 4 members.
my suggestion: Create free and paying slot system for every hour and Ask the people to register in advance, it will be very easiest system . Already this system. is in TTD.
@Darmeshbabu, it’s a good idea problem is since this is just a 48day event they have not implemented a proper system

1) Free Queue – 5 tp 7 hrs (if you reach early 3 to 4 hrs)

Hi Bryce,

Do you have any suggestion for stay?
Sir, i managed to book 4 Tickets for 300 rupees by gods grace.
Usually how long it takes and we have an infant of 1 year and senior citizen..
Will this queue will be managable for them any idea.. It says west gopuram entrance.
300 rs ticket is in the evening, it should take 1 to 2hrs.
Can we book 4 tickets together ..I mean in single entry or we need to do 4 entries repeatedly
@Puvitha as of now NO, but they are constantly working on improving ticketing system. So you might in future wait for few days.
How long is the wait time for Rs. 300 and Rs. 500 tickets?
For Rs. 300 it takes anywhere between 1 to 1.5hrs, for Rs. 500 it’s 45 minutes.
is it a seperate queue for rs 500 darshan or all are same what is difference of free darshan and 500 darshan pls explain me shall we take kids for darshan in 500
@Narayana muryhy 500 rs entry is at West Gopuram, you can spend more time in front of Athi Varadar as this is like Archanai, Also you get to see Athi Varadar in 1 hour as only it’s limited to 250 tickets in the morning and 250 in the evening.
hello sir
