A large number of devotees witnessed the grand Sri Vairamudi Kireetadharana Mahotsava of Sri Cheluvanarayana Swamy on Monday evening. After a gap of two years, devotees were allowed to get a glimpse of the Vairamudi Utsav in the temple where the deity, adorned in diamond-studded crown and priceless ornaments, was taken out in a procession.
The rituals associated with 13-day Vairamudi Brahmotsava began on March 9. The annual event was a low-key affair for the last two years owing to COVID-19 and only locals were allowed to participate in the festivities.
