Press Release – HostMyGuest On‑Demand Furnishing Service (10 Sep 2026)
HostMyGuest, a Hyderabad‑based startup, announced the launch of an on‑demand furnishing service designed to enable Indian families to host guests at home rather than in hotels. The announcement, dated 10 September 2026, references the cultural principle Atithi Devo Bhava and highlights the logistical challenge families face when large gatherings—such as three‑day weddings, multi‑generational pujas, or housewarmings drawing relatives from multiple cities—exceed the available sleeping capacity at their residences.
The service operates through HostMyGuest’s proprietary booking platform. Customers input the event dates and specify the required furniture and bedding; the company then manages delivery, professional setup, and post‑event collection, eliminating the need for hosts to source vendors or manage logistics themselves. Founder and CEO Gali Arundar Sai emphasizes that the offering is about preserving the emotional closeness of home‑based hosting, while Founder and CTO Subhash Chunduri stresses the removal of friction through a seamless digital experience.
Currently, the service is available across all major neighbourhoods of Hyderabad. In the four months since launch, HostMyGuest has facilitated accommodations for more than 700 guests across weddings, festivals, and family functions, indicating a latent demand for structured, short‑term home furnishing solutions. The company positions the service as complementary to hotels, not competitive, by providing the “presence” element that hotels cannot replicate.
