This temple assumes special significance and importance to the Nandavarik community of the Brahmins as it is their community's presiding deity. Therefore, a lot of patronage and funds come from the Nandavarik/Nandavareeka Brahmins. They are allowed to go inside the grabha-griha and perform personal pooja to the goddess Choudeshwari. It is common practice and recommended for Nandavariks to give a saree to the goddess. | This temple assumes special significance and importance to the Nandavarik community of the Brahmins as it is their community's presiding deity.
