Kailaya Eswaramudaiya Mahadevar. Over time, however, the temple started to lose its glory. The lands were all encroached by private individuals, not even allowing for a pathway to reach the temple. The patronage trickled down and finally stopped. There was no worship happening here for several decades and due to the lack of maintenance, the stones on the vimana started disintegrating, falling on the beautiful Nandi and ornate icons below and damaging them. A headless Uma Sahitha Murthy and Dwara Ganapathy, stand testimony to this too.

Today, with the support of kind hearted individuals and the villagers of Kesavaram, the temple is functioning with one Kaala Puja.

Speciality of worship:

Kailasa Eswara is said to remove the karma of the previous births and people who have depression problem or mental ailments worship him to find comfort and better state of mind. As the Lord is in a meditative posture here, those worshipping him find all their doshas leaving them. Especially those affected by Pitru Dosha (curse of elders) find relief by worshipping here. There have been several instances reported when he has appeared in the minds of devotees, asking them to come here and worship him. In fact, there was a man who came here to steal the beautiful icons in the Koshta, and no one knows what happened, but he ran for his life, without touching any of them!
