A chatur bahu vigraham (four-armed murti) is worshipped in a circular sanctum sanctorum (vatta sreekovil). The temple has a nalambalam and gopuram on the east and west side.
As per popular belief the form of Sri Rama is that of annihilating Khara and then giving darshan to Khara in Shaiva Chaithanya form. As result the belief is that worshipping Sri Rama in the temple is equal to visiting a Shiva shrine.
The Upa Devatas worshipped in the temple are Ganapathy, Dakshinamurti, Hanuman, Durga, Nagam, Yakshi and Rakshas.
The Sreekovil of Sastha is located southwest side of the Nalambalam. The deity faces east. Panchaloha golakam is worn around the neck of the Sastha murti carved in stone.
The 8-day annual festival in the temple concludes on Thiruvonam nakshatra in Makaram month. Pujas and rituals are held on Makaravilakku too.
The temple is now maintained by a Trust.
