Dr Shirish Kulkarni is a well-known authority in the field of astrology and has been practicing professionally for the last 10 years. Based in Pune, Maharashtra, the 44-year-old is the founder of Shree Shraddha Astrology and is widely recognised for his practical and modern approach to spiritual guidance. What makes his journey truly interesting is that astrology was not his original profession. Before stepping into this world full-time, he spent 22 years in the healthcare industry and built a strong professional foundation with qualifications such as MBA (PGDBM) along with several management development programs. What started as curiosity gradually turned into passion, and that passion eventually became his full-time purpose.
Over the years, Dr Kulkarni has developed expertise across multiple areas including Tarot Cards, Rune Stones, Vedic Astrology, Numerology and Vaastu Shastra. His consultation style is often described as logical and easy to understand, which is one of the key reasons he has been able to connect with the new generation so strongly. People who approach him are not only looking for predictions, but also clarity, direction, and practical remedies that can be followed in day-to-day life. His remedies focus on effectiveness and simplicity, helping clients feel confident and in control rather than confused or dependent.
In a short span of time, he has built a strong digital presence and a loyal community that continues to grow every month. As of today, he has more than 7 lakh followers on Instagram, 5.5 lakh on Facebook, and 5 lakh on his YouTube channel. His online growth reflects the trust he has earned through consistent guidance and content that simplifies complex spiritual concepts for everyday people. Because he offers consultations through Google Meet and video meetings in the Marathi language, his work has reached far beyond Maharashtra. This has allowed him to build a client base across the world, especially among people who prefer receiving guidance in their mother tongue and feel comfortable sharing personal matters in Marathi.
Dr Kulkarni has given consultation to more than 2000 people, including many Marathi celebrities and business owners. His credibility has also been strengthened through recognition from reputed platforms and well-known personalities. He has received two honorary doctorates in Astrology and has been honoured with awards from Lokmat Newspaper along with several other awards. Over time, he has also received recognition and awards from famous personalities such as Dia Mirza, Parineeti Chopra, Prarthana Behre, Kishori Shahane and others. These acknowledgements have further reinforced his position as a respected and trusted name in the astrology space.
While achievements and followers are important, Dr Kulkarni’s true impact lies in the belief system he shares with his audience. He strongly believes in Karma and often says that success is not magic—success is mostly effort. According to him, 99 percent of success comes from your efforts and only 1 percent comes from luck, and if someone wants to become lucky, they should work on their spiritual power and inner discipline. This mindset is one of the reasons people resonate with him deeply, because he does not encourage fear-based dependence. Instead, he focuses on strengthening a person’s thinking, actions, and confidence, using astrology as a tool for clarity and alignment.
Today, Dr Shirish Kulkarni is considered one of the top astrologers from Maharashtra, known for blending tradition with a practical, modern approach. His journey from a long career in healthcare to becoming an established astrology authority shows what happens when curiosity is taken seriously and passion is backed by discipline. Through Shree Shraddha Astrology, he continues to create a meaningful impact by helping people navigate decisions, challenges, and life transitions with clarity, stability, and faith—while reminding them that the real power always starts within.
