The Moolavar is Kaatkaraiyappan seen in standing posture facing south.  There is a belief in the region that this Lord is Vaamanar & hence there is great celebrations here during Onam festival.

The plantain trees in this thalam would not yield fruits & the farmer prayed to this Lord & offered plantains in gold.  Ever since there was good yeild of large sweet plantains & it is beleived that these are the Nendram fruits popular in Kerala.  This gold fruit in the sannadhi went missing & the farmer doubted and troubled a yogi.  But, it was finally found in the sannadhi itself.  The yogi committted suicide & was considered to be roaming the area as a Brahma Rakshasan.  Devotees built a small temple for the yogi & offered him daily neivaediyam to appease him.
