The Corridor was divided into three parts. The main temple is the first part of the project which was constructed with Red SandStone. Four massive doors were constructed, including the Pradakshina Margam. The Margam has details including pictures that highlight the specialty of the temple.
The overall cost for the total project is said to be close to Rs 800 crore. For this, more than 300 properties were acquired and people who reside there and run shops were shifted to other places under rehabilitation work.
