The book ' Mulkiya Savantaru' written by the famous folk scholar Muddu Moodubelle is a tribute to the entire history of Mulki.

Hindus in Mulki are very diverse in themselves with a significant population of Billavas, Mogaveeras, Bunts, Goud Saraswats and Tulu Brahmins.

Tradition tells us that years ago this temple was caused to be constructed by a Muslim called Bappa who seemed to have discovered the linga submerged under water in the locality, when he was engaged in trade.
