Rajparis Unveils New Identity, Shruti Haasan as Brand Face, and Blue Jewel at ECR Announced its Golden Jubilee Vision of entering 500Cr revenue club by 2030

Chennai, 9th July, 2025: As it steps into a bold new era ahead of its golden jubilee in 2030, Rajparis, one of Chennai’s most respected real estate names, has announced its Vision 2030 with three landmark developments that mark a transformational moment in its journey: the unveiling of a refreshed brand identity, the appointment of Shruti Haasan as its first-ever brand ambassador, and the launch of a boutique luxury project, Blue Jewel, on East Coast Road (ECR).

With this renewed identity, Rajparis is aiming to become a 500crore revenue company by 2030, driven by strategic expansion, elevated construction and design standards, and deeper customer engagement. Through its allied venture, Anandam, Rajparis has already consolidated over 1 million square feet of prime land parcels in Chennai, earmarked for the development of lifestyle-focused residential and mixed-use communities. Additionally, the company is actively exploring expansion into increasingly becoming high-potential markets in RoTN, beginning with Kancheepuram and Madurai, extending its legacy of trust and quality to a broader audience.

At the heart of this transformation lies a story of legacy and emotion. The name Rajparis was lovingly coined by the company’s two founders – both qualified engineers – by combining the names of their parents as a tribute to the people who shaped their values. What began as a gesture of love and respect has grown into a philosophy that defines the brand: treating every customer like family and building homes with the same care and integrity they would offer their own loved ones.

Commenting on this milestone development, the founders of Rajparis – Mr. R. Satchidanandam, Chairman and Mr. R. Jeyakumar, Managing Director said, “This name is our story – it carries our parents’ blessings and our promise to treat every customer like our own family. Every project we create is guided by the values we grew up with – trust, respect, and care that comes from the heart.”

Over the past 45 years, Rajparis has earned the trust of thousands of families by delivering homes defined by quality, reliability, and human connection. The founders’ engineering backgrounds bring unmatched technical depth to every project, further strengthening the brand’s credibility in a competitive real estate landscape.

Joining this exciting new phase is acclaimed actor and multifaceted artist Shruti Haasan, who now serves as the face of the brand. Known for her elegance, authenticity, and versatile style, Shruti perfectly embodies the contemporary, refined lifestyle that Rajparis envisions.

Commenting on her collaboration, Actor Ms. Shruti Haasan added, “I’m delighted to associate with Rajparis, a brand that stands for trust and timeless value. Their passion for crafting exceptional homes deeply resonates with my belief in thoughtful design and meaningful experiences.”

Anchoring the new brand vision is the launch of Blue Jewel, a boutique luxury project designed for just 55 privileged families, located in the serene surroundings of Muthukadu on ECR. These expansive 3BHK residences, each spanning 2,200 sq. ft., offer triple panoramic views – of the Bay of Bengal, the Muthukadu Lake, and the historic Buckingham Canal – making them one of Chennai’s most unique living experiences.

Commenting on the future plans, Mr. Rajkumar Satchidanandam , Director of Rajparis said, “Our new identity, our association with Shruti Haasan, and the launch of Blue Jewel mark a defining moment for Rajparis. With Blue Jewel, we are setting new benchmarks in boutique luxury projects while remaining deeply rooted in the values that have guided us for 45 years. As we look to the future, we are committed to carrying forward our legacy through innovation and technology-driven excellence.”

Meril Launches MyClip, India’s First Transcatheter-Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) System for Treatment of Severe Mitral Regurgitation

Press Release 20th June 2025: Meril Life Sciences, a leading global med-tech company, marked a significant milestone with the launch of MyClip, India’s first Transcatheter Edge-To-Edge Repair (TEER) system, on June 14. The landmark Structural Heart Innovation event, held at Meril Academy, Vapi (Gujarat) from June 13–15, brought together over 150 Indian interventional cardiologists along with cardiac imaging expert and international stalwarts, including Prof. Ottavio Alfieri (“Father of mitral valve repair”), Prof. Francesco Maisano, and Prof. Agricola, joining global pioneers in edge-to-edge mitral valve repair.

Meril is currently the world’s leading TAVI group following the success of Myval THV and first Indian company to introduce a TEER system, placing the country firmly on the map as an innovator in transcatheter heart valve therapies (with both replacement and repair technology platforms). MyClip introduction demonstrates India’s growing capabilities in structural heart solutions and reflects Meril’s commitment to accessible cutting-edge cardiac care.

MyClip TEER System is designed for patients suffering from severe Mitral Regurgitation (MR) who are at high surgical risk due to pre-existing issues like hypertension, diabetes, obesity, advanced age, physical frailty, enlarged or weak heart, and patients with kidney, lung and liver problems. MR, particularly if untreated, has a devastating mortality rate—over 50% of patients may not survive without timely intervention, and 1-year mortality can be as high as 57%.

The MyClip TEER System enables precise closure of the mitral valve flaps, effectively preventing the backward flow of purified blood into the lungs. The procedure is minimally invasive, & takes approximately one hour, and allows patients to return home within 3–5 days. After discharge, patients can resume daily activities like walking and non-strenuous work within a short period post the procedure.

According to the landmark COAPT Study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), patients receiving device-based therapy for mitral regurgitation experienced significantly better outcomes compared to those receiving standard medical treatment. Within 24 months, the hospitalization rate for heart failure was reduced to 35.8% per patient-year in the device group, compared to 67.9% in the control group. Additionally, mortality within the same period was notably lower in the device group, at 29.1%, compared to 46.1% in the control group.

Currently, approximately 150 TEER (Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair) procedures are performed annually in India, with the majority of patients falling in the younger age group (30 – 60). These statistics bring to light a pressing need for early and effective intervention in younger demographics.

The launch of MyClip TEER System marks a transformative moment for structural heart therapy in India. Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) therapy has shown significant success over traditional Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT). MyClip represents a major step forward in India’s cardiovascular treatment landscape.

In his inaugural speech, Sanjeev Bhatt, Senior Vice President of Corporate Strategy at Meril Life Sciences, said, “In India, around 1.5 million people are known to have severe mitral regurgitation. Of these at least 1.2 million are post myocardial infarction (MI or a heart attack) or due to heart failure. Introduction of the MyClip TEER system marks a pivotal shift and we’re witnessing early adoption. Meril’s efforts in training cardiologists and building TEE-based imaging expertise are crucial steps in scaling this life-saving therapy across the country.”

“With MyClip, Meril is reshaping the country’s role in global medtech. This homegrown innovation is a testament to what Indian science, engineering, and clinical collaboration can achieve together. Meril’s nationwide public awareness campaign #TreatmentZarooriHai is in full swing, with brand ambassador MS Dhoni, to educate patients and families about the life-saving value of timely intervention in mitral valve regurgitation,” Mr. Bhatt added.

The two-day Structural Heart Innovation scientific program featured case demonstrations, interactive hands-on workshops, and the presentations leading Interventional Cardiologists and Echocardiologists. The event concluded with a call to build a sustainable M-TEER ecosystem in India, focused on accessibility, clinical excellence, and continuous innovation.

A Spiritual Legacy Woven Anew, a Cultural Collaboration between Ramraj Cotton and Dushyanth Sridhar.

India, 29 th May, 2025:In a timely convergence of tradition and vision, Ramraj Cotton launches a significant
initiative in association with venerated scholar and cultural exponent Dushyanth Sridhar to popularize the
Acharya Panchakacham Veshti a symbol of spiritual heritage and Indian identity.
This tie-up is not an endorsement of the conventional kind. It is a union of two powers united by a mutual
admiration for Sanatana Dharma, cultural tradition, and the timelessness of classical dress. Ramraj Cotton,
synonymous with the dignity of the veshtis for so long, finds in Dushyanth Sridhar not a spokesperson but a
kindred spirit—a man who breathes and lives the values the company hopes to nurture and honour.
The Acharya Panchakacham Veshti is a garment made with a single-minded intention—to pay tribute to
spiritual lineages and become a ceremonial garment for the wearer who follows the path of wisdom and
dharma. Made with detail and purity, the veshti is no mere article of wearing apparel, but a declaration of
purpose—a sign of one’s affiliation with ageless tradition.
With a profound knowledge and extensive command of Santayana Dharma and his gift for translating
ancient wisdom into contemporary relevance, Dushyanth Sridhar inspires and engages audiences across
generations through insightful discourses on Indian epics and scriptures, position him as a distinguished
voice in the realm of cultural preservation. His involvement is not incidental. It reflects a shared
commitment with Ramraj Cotton to uphold and celebrate India’s sacred traditions while thoughtfully
bringing them into the contemporary consciousness.
The Acharya Panchakacham Veshti stands as a testament to this ethos. Meticulously designed for spiritual
observances, religious ceremonies, and culturally significant gatherings, the veshti transcends its material
form to become a symbol of devotion, discipline, and identity. For those who seek authenticity in
ceremonial attire not just as an expression of custom, but as a continuation of dharma, this collection
occupies a revered place. It is where heritage finds its voice through fabric, and faith is worn with pride.
Speaking about the association, Mr. K.R. Nagarajan, Founder & Culturepreneur, Ramraj Cotton, said,
“Ramraj Cotton is synonymous with veshti. We manufacture and sell over 4,000 varieties of veshtis across
India. Among these, the Panchakacham veshti is specially made for gurus and Acharyas. When we aimed to
take this product beyond Andhra Pradesh and South India to the global stage, Dushyanth Sridhar was the
natural choice. His dedication to spreading Indian tradition worldwide makes him an ideal brand
ambassador for the prestigious Acharya Panchakacham Veshti. His commitment to preserving Indian
culture and Dharma, combined with his ability to connect ancient wisdom with modern life, perfectly
represents our brand.” He added, “The Acharya Panchakacham Veshti is more than just traditional wear; it
is a symbol of our heritage, worn on sacred and festive occasions. I invite every Indian to honour their
roots not only in spirit but also in their attire.”
Dushyanth Sridhar added, “When Goddess Parvati asked Lord Shiva about the essence of the thousand
names, He simply replied that ‘Rama’ was the core. In that spirit, Ramraj Cotton is a brand uniquely blessed
to carry the sacred name ‘Rama’. Over time, we have had many Acharyas who walked this land. Adi
Shankara, Ramanuja, Vedanta Desika, Madhvacharya, and more recently, the revered Kanchi
Mahaperiyava have all walked this path and shown us the way. It is indeed a matter of pride that Ramraj
Cotton honours such a lineage through their Acharya Veshtis. I believe that to nurture and encourage our
culture, today’s youth must embrace such traditional attire and uphold the values our ancestors lived by.”
