Earlier it was a small pious stone worshiped by a Marwari family within Fatehpur Shekhawati, Sikar, Rajasthan. It is said as there were fewer opportunities existing within those days at Sikar, Rajasthan, the Marwari family decided to shift to Hyderabad for business but before moving requested their family Guru to bless them so that their business would be successful in Hyderabad. The Guru gave them a small pious stone i.e., Shaligram to worship for the success of their upcoming business. The lady of the house started worshiping Shaligram at Hyderabad but one day the pious stone disappeared. She was very sad and started crying. That night Shaligram God appeared within her dream and told her not to worry as he is within the house but wished to be worshiped by Tulsi – not available commonly within Hyderabad those days in the year 1723 thus, shift him to Vrindavan where there is lots-n-lots of Tulsi is present. The lady the next day found Shaligram within the mouse hole but to dig a hole one has to take permission from the Nizam of the area. Shaligram was found but it suddenly turned into a huge – Sava Man – weight. Upon the request from the lady, Nizam transferred Shaligram to Vrindavan through his workers who were fishermen. The lady also came along with Shaligram and stayed at Vrindavan forever.
In the year 1823 Jalan families built the temple.
