The moolavar is Bhakthavatsala perumal in a standing posture and the Thayar Sudhavalli Tayar also called Ennaipetra Tayar. The Theertham is Varuna pushkarini and the Vimanam Uthbala Vimanam. There is a shrine to Rama on the banks of Varuna pushkarini tank.
The legend has it that Varuna - Samudraraja - worshipped Lord Vishu at this shetram. It is also believed that the Lord visiting this shetram followed by Lakshmi, made it His home and hence the name Triu Ninravoor.
It is said that Tirumangai Azhwar after worshipping at this shrine left without singing a pasuram. The Lord followed him to Mamallapuram where he sang the pasuram referring to this kshetram. Brahmotsavam and Pavitrotsavam are conducted in this temple.
