According to sthala purana (temple history), sage Mandukya was doing penance near river Kudaganaru. And Thalaasuran, a demon, tried to spoil the sage’s efforts. Lord Azhagar from Thirumaliruncholai (Azhagar temple) destroyed the demon and protected the sage’s penance. The sage prayed to the Lord to stay and bless the devotees and so Azhagar gives darshan as Soundaraja Perumal in this temple.This temple is supposed to be as important as the Azhagar temple near Madurai and history states that it was built 500 years ago by Achutha Devarayar of the Vijayanagar Empire.
