Vavilla Ramaswamy Sastrulu and Sons (Telugu: వావిళ్ల రామస్వామి శాస్త్రులు అండ్ సన్స్) is a 150-year-old Indian publishing house.
It was started by Vavilla Ramaswamy Sastrulu in 1854 in Chennai in a press named Hindu Bhasha Sanjeevini. Later he established Adi Saraswathi Nilayam. During his lifetime, he published about 50 important books in Telugu and Sanskrit.
His well-educated son Vavilla Venkateswara Sastrulu led the house in 1906 and actively continued the tradition and improved it greatly. He named it "Vavilla Press". It was associated with Gita Press of Gorakhpur and Choukhamba Press of Varanasi. He published books with perfect proofreading by the experts in the field and successfully printed in Royal, Demy and Crown sizes. He was the first to get his books bound with calico cover and glittering letters.
Vavilla Press published mostly classic literature, epics, Puranas, and commentaries. They published Sanskrit text in Telugu script so that any Telugu reader person can read the ancient Sanskrit texts and study them. During his lifetime more than 900 books in Telugu, Sanskrit, Tamil and English languages were published.
