Madhavaram is a Northern Suburb of Chennai and has come into limelight after the New Bus Terminus was built here. This Kari Varadharaja Perumal Temple is located in the busy Madhavaram area of Chennai. The Presiding Deity here is Kari Varadaraja Perumal who is an Uthsavar. Kari in Tamil means an Elephant and hence the Kari Varadaraja Perumal. His Consort is known as Kanakavalli Thaayar. On entering the Temple we could find a huge Anjaneyaswamy Idol of 21 feet. This Idol was installed in February 2001. The Sthala Viruksham is a Vanni Tree beneath which Naga Devathas are found. Kanakavalli Thaayar has a separate Shrine of Her own. The Moolavar is called as Venkata Varadaraja Perumal. It is believed that Devotees who are unable to visit Varadaraja Perumal Temple at Kanchipuram could compensate it by visiting this Temple. It is believed that Saint Vyasar had visited this place. There are Shrines for Kothanda Ramar, Baktha Anjaneyar, Andal, Lakshmi Hayagreevar, Chakrathalwar, Ramanujar and Alwars. The Temple is believed to have been constructed in 676 AD by the Pallava King Second Nandhivarman.
