Bhrigu, Manchi, Atri, Markandeya, Sumathi, Saptharoma and Jabali and also have been praised by two of the earliest Alwars 1. Partha Sarathy - There was this King called Sumathy, who was a Krishna Bhakt. He wanted to see Krishna in the form of Krishna, who fought on the side of Pandava in the Mahabharatha, and has taken the role of Sarathy (charioteer) for Arjuna (Partha). Hence the name Parthasarathy. After the darshan the king wanted him to have a permanent abode here. Thus the temple. The deity here is called Venkata Krishnan. Mruthy is of 9feet height, sporting a mustache(only one Vishnu temple), injury marks in the face, as he took the spears aimed at Arjuna by Bhisma on his face. He is with his family - Rukmini, elder brother Balarama, younger brother - Satyaki, Son Pradyumnan and grandson Anirudh. 2. Vedavalli Tayar - 3. Yoga Narasimhar - Narasimhar known as ' ' came to this temple at the request of Atri Maharishi. Since he is Yoga sthithi, no bells are wrung here.
