== Mythical importance ==<br />
It was a myth that long long ago, Sage Bruhu was in deep meditation. Suddenly, the tranquility was shattered with loud noises of a Chollha king who was hunting a lion. Disturbed by this, the sage cursed the king to bear a lion's face. Regretting the intrusion, the king sought for a remedy. The sage advised him to take bath in the river Vettraru (also known as Vruddha Cauvery) and to pray [[Vishnu]] at this place for his goodness. The king did so and it worked to regain his human features. After that this place got importance.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Shri Adhi Narayana Perumal Temple: Vishnu on Garuda & Remedies |url=https://www.southtourism.in/tamilnadu/temples/mrigashirsha-shri-adi-narayana-perumal-temple.php |access-date=24 September 2024 |website=www.southtourism.in |language=en}}</ref><br />
