The Lord gives darshan in bridal attire. Kavala Maharishi had 360 daughters. The Lord made all 360 maidens into one maiden and kept her on His lap. As per sthalapurana, the Lord married one maiden a day and married all 360 daughters of the Maharishi in a year and hence called Nitya Kalyana Perumal. The Lord has Lakshmi on His left side and hence the Kshetra is called Edavendai (Edam - left).

This Kshetra is about 43 kms from Madras on the Madras Mahabalipuram road.
