Alghu Malluru Krishna Swamy Temple is existing in the Mannarpoluru Village, right from the time of Telugu Chola rulers. The village is close-by to Sullurupet, at a distance of 103 Km. from Nellore. It was built in the 17th century by Bangaru Yadama Nayudu, the living place of Mallayodas or wrestlers. Mannarpoluru is a small Village in Sullurpet, Nellore, Andhra Pradesh.
According to a legend, it was here that Sri Krishna defeated Jambavantha in a duel and married his daughter Jambavati and that Lord Mahavishnu deflated the bloated ego of Garutmata here alone. Apart from the idol of Satyabhama and Jambavati, the two consorts of Sri Krishna, the idol of Jambavantha creating the illusion of shedding tears are bound to amaze the viewers. One cannot help but marvel at the sculptural splendor exuded by the idols of the beauties.
