	Many centuries ago, a Brahmin family of [[Gautama Maharishi\|Gautama]] [[gotra]] from Sagara taluka in [[Shimoga]] (Shivamogga) district in Karnataka migrated to the hamlet ''Saravu'' in Kodapadavu village in [[Bantwal taluk]] of [[Dakshina Kannada district]]. During a particular point in history, there was no male heir to continue the family. The then family members went to the [[Kukke Subramanya Temple]] & prayed to Subramanya to bless them with a male heir. They brought home a ''Shiva Linga'' for daily worship from the temple. Within the same temple complex, they also sought the blessings of Lakshmi Narasimha, with an assurance to him, that he would be the ''kuladevaru'' or [[Kuldevta]] of the family henceforth. A male heir was thus born and the family continued. Then on the descendants of this family identified themselves as belonging to '''Cukkemane''' or '''Kukkemane''' deriving it from "Kukke" - the name of Subramanya & "Mane" – which in [[Kannada]] means house, therefore the name meant the House of the Kukke Subramanya. Prior to accepting Lakshmi Narasimha as the Cukkemane family deity, Goddess Sri Durgaparmeshwari was the Kuladevaru or the family deity. Therefore, even today some members of the Cukkemane in Saravu, worship Lakshmi Narasimha as the Mane Devaru - God of the House, at noon and Goddess Sri Durgaparameshwari as the kuladevaru – God of the Clan or family, at night.{{citation needed\|date=February 2017}}		Many centuries ago, a Brahmin family of [[Gautama Maharishi\|Gautama]] [[gotra]] from Sagara taluka in [[Shimoga]] (Shivamogga) district in Karnataka migrated to the hamlet ''Saravu'' in Kodapadavu village in [[Bantwal taluk]] of [[Dakshina Kannada district]].
