Savalpoondi, a village in Tiruvannamalai district, 2 km away from Tiruvannamalai town. This is where The Avatar's paternal ancestral family lived as a highly affluent, agricultural family from the respected Shaiva Vellalar community, and from where they came and settled in the heart of Tiruvannamalai in Tiruvoodal street.

This Ganesha temple was owned by The Avatar's paternal ancestral family when they were settled in this village.
