Chathapurinathar Temple is situated in the Thirukolakka locality about 1 km from central Chidambaram and is dedicated to Lord Shiva in the form of Chathapurinathar. The consort deity worshipped alongside is Osai Kodutha Nayagi, meaning the goddess who grants the gift of sound, reflecting the town's deep association with music and the performing arts. The temple is compact but held in high regard by local devotees who believe the presiding deity responds with particular immediacy to sincere prayer. It is easily included as a short detour on any Chidambaram temple circuit itinerary.
