On Wednesday 17 December, Chinmaya Mission Chennai released a special musical edition of the Bhagavad Gita in Tamil, at Chinmaya Heritage Centre, Chetpet. Shri K. Annamalai, former Tamil Nadu State President of the Bharatiya Janata Party and former IPS officer, graced the occasion to formally release the audio pendrive, featuring all 18 chapters of the Bhagavad Gita in Tamil, each rendered in a distinct raga. 

The release was part of Chinmaya Amrit Mahotsav celebrations for the 75th year of the Chinmaya Movement, and is aimed at bringing the message of the Bhagavad Gita closer to Tamil-speaking devotees. An audio pendrive with select verses of the Tamil Gita set to music by Maestro Shri Ilaiyaraaja was launched by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi earlier this year in July 2025.
