During Danurmasam on each day in the early morning each Tiruppavai Pasuram will be rendered infront of the Lord in Ekantha.
During this festival Tiruppavai Pasurams will be performed to the Lord in place of Suprabhata Seva in the early morning.
This seva will be performed alone by the Temple Priests in the temple and Pilgrims will not be allowed for this Tiruppavai Parusams Seva.
