Located in Thirunallar, this Shaniswaran Temple has Lord Shiva appearing as Arulumigu Dharbaranyeswarara and His consort Parvati as Praneswari. One of the Navagraha Sthalas, this temple is associated with Shani (Saturn) Graha. The popular legend goes that Nala was ruling this region full of tropical grass locally called Darba after which the place came to be known as Darbaranyam (Aranyam indicates forest while Darba is a grass). Every person is afflicted by the movement of planet Saturn, which is believed to create negative effects on the lives of people. Nala was also afflicted by the planetary movement of Saturn on a day when he skipped standard practices of cleanliness. He is believed to have resided in the temple to get himself off the curses of Shani, the planet Saturn. He prayed to Shiva and wanted him to protect all the devotees afflicted with Shani to be protected when they visit the temple. Following the legend, people afflicted take a holy dip with oil in Nala theertham, the temple tank and wear black dress.
