Aniruddhacharya Maharaj spotted in Rs 60 lakh Tesla: Check Pookie Baba's networth, luxury cars & income

Aniruddhacharya Maharaj, popularly known as Pookie Baba, has found himself in the spotlight amid a swirl of controversies. He is facing backlash over alleged inappropriate remarks about a 25-year-old woman and comments on live-in relationships made during a religious gathering. Further intensifying the public discourse, a video has emerged in which his father claims mistreatment at the Gauri Gopal Ashram.

Beyond the controversies, the spiritual leader’s lifestyle has come under scrutiny—particularly his fondness for high-end vehicles. During a recent visit to the United States, he shared an Instagram video showing himself in a Tesla Model Y, just weeks after Tesla officially entered the Indian market with its launch in Mumbai on July 15, 2025. While it remains unclear whether he owns the electric SUV, the video sparked widespread attention.

In India, the Tesla Model Y starts at Rs 59.89 lakh, according to official listings. Back in 2024, Aniruddhacharya was seen driving a white Volvo XC90 while dressed in his signature traditional attire—mustard jacket, checkered kurta, and muffler. The Volvo XC90, priced at around Rs 1.03 crore (ex-showroom), boasts upgraded headlights, a redesigned bumper, a larger touchscreen, and other luxury enhancements. Reports also suggest that he owns a Volvo XC40, worth approximately Rs 50 lakh.


Financially, Aniruddhacharya Maharaj is estimated to have a net worth of Rs 25 crore as of 2025. His income reportedly comes from religious discourses (Rs 1–3 lakh per session), seven-day Bhagwat Katha events (Rs 10–15 lakh), YouTube revenue (around Rs 2 lakh per month), and brand sponsorships.

Born as Anirudh Ram Tiwari on September 27, 1989, in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, he is married to Dr. Arti Tiwari, a PhD in psychology and known in his following as Guru Mata. The couple has two sons, Om and Shivu Tiwari.
