A 20 Year Legacy : The Women Behind The Ooragai Originals.

The Ooragai Originals is more than a brand; it’s a living legacy of authentic Andhra pickling—a story seasoned by family, tradition, and three generations of passion.

Our journey began decades ago in two humble kitchens: Vijaya Kumari Nadakudity & Venkata Lakshmi Rachakonda - who perfected the art of pickle-making and today they are joined by Sai Sindhu Nadakudity.

The soul of every Ooragai Originals recipe is forged from over 60 years of combined experience and the unique gifts of our founding matriarchs:

Their unwavering promise is simple: Homely, preservative-free goodness in every single jar.

Each jar we create is a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and love—carefully handcrafted to bring the irreplaceable flavors of our family directly to your table. Because at The Ooragai Originals, it’s never just a pickle. It’s a piece of our heart, bottled for yours.
