For Maldakal, Tirumala is off limits, local deity towers; no villager has visited Tirupati temple ever

IndiaTimes Monday, 14 July 2025 ()
In Maldakal, Telangana, villagers abstain from visiting Tirumala, believing it brings misfortune. Their devotion centers on Sri Swayambhu Lakshmi Venkateswara Swamy, or Thimmappa, whose self-manifested idol resides in their village temple. Locals believe Lord Venkateswara first set foot in Maldakal before Tirupati, a belief supported by generations and reinforced by reported negative experiences of those who dared to visit Tirumala.
