East, West and South Raja Gopuram (Temple towers) were built during the period of Vijayanagar dynasty. Hence Narasimha Swamy Temple here is called as Prahalada Sametha Narasimha Swamy Temple. Narasimha Swamy pleased with the prayers and withdraw the anger at this place. At Sthothadhri hill which is near to Kadiri Town, Devas along with Prahaladha prayed to calm down Narasimha Swamy. Even after killing the demon, he started roaming around forests and hills with anger. Lord Maha Vishnu took the form of Narasimha Swamy to kill the Hiranya Kasyapa.
