According to legends, the temple was built by Nakula, the Pandava prince depicted in the Indian epic Mahabharata. Sage Narada is believed to have been blessed here with the duty of preaching the truth to humanity. Lord Vishnu is believed to have created a text describing the rules to be followed for worshipping him, at this shrine.
