Religious Significance

Once, devotees wanting the darshan of Lord Srinivasa performed a yagna (fire ritual) here. A demon caused problems and tried to stop the yagna. Responding to their prayers, Perumal appeared there and destroyed the demon. As he was in a raging form, the devotees prayed to Mahalakshmi to quench the fury of the Lord. Lakshmi obliged the devotees, and along with Lord Vishnu, stayed back to grace the place and the devotees. Later, a temple was built here for the Lord with Sridevi and Bhoodevi as His consorts with the name of Srinivasa Perumal.

History

This temple was built between 500-1000 years ago. The temple in its current form is believed to have been built by Achutha Deva Raya.
