The temple also has the idols of Goddess Lakshmi and Kali, according to history Sage Veda Vyasa after the Kurukshetra war was searching for peace and reached Basar located on the banks of River Godavari in Dandakaranya. He found this place very peaceful and so started meditating there, the Goddess ordered the sage to place three handfuls of sand at three places every day.
