The Kattu Narasimhaperumal Temple is a Hindu temple situated in the suburb of Srirangam in Tiruchirappalli, India. It is also known as Azhagiya Singar temple and is situated at a distance of 1 kilometre from the Srirangam railway station.[1][2]

The temple is also called traditionally "Ekaanthanthaman Koil" meaning "calm and quiet ambience" temple. It is widely believed that the presiding deity grants boons to devotees and is aptly called "Varaprasaaadhi" (boon giver).The temple does not find a mention in Nalayira Divya Prabhandams, and thus is not listed in Divya Desam group of 108 temples. But it is classified as one of the most important Abhimana sthalam out of the 108.
