The temple was renovated using black granite. Over 4,000 sculptors worked on the project which cost over ₹ 1,800 crore. Yadadri Temple Development Authority, Vice Chairman, Kishan Rao said that cement lasts only 80-100 years, but we did some research and found that this (black granite) will last some 500 years.

The temple is being hailed for its architectural beauty. It is a fusion of Dravidian, Pallava, Kakatiyan styles of temple construction. The ground area of the temple has been increased from 11 acres to 17 acres. This is the biggest temple in the world that has been constructed completely with stone, Anand Sai, the Chief Architect of the Temple.
