Each day, thousands of devotees visit this temple and many of them make donations. Among them is the man named Varang Lakshmi Narasimha Devasthanam who wrote the cheque for ₹100 crore in the name of the temple. In the cheque, the man first wrote ₹10 as donation. However, he then went on to add the exuberant amount. Initially, the temple authority was shocked to see the amount as no devotee has ever made such a large donation. However, little did they know that they were in for another shock. When they went to the bank to deposit it, they were informed that the man only had a balance of ₹17 in his account. The temple authority announced that if this action was done deliberately the devotee, then they will take proper action against him.
