After the Mattaiadi mahotsavam Perarulalan along with Nachiyar's would proceed to wards the 100 kaal mandapam. By this time the Nithya Thirumanjana moorthy, Pranatharthihara Varadan, would come down from Hasthigiri to join Perarulalan and NAchiyar's. ThiruAradhanam is performed for Perarulalan, Nachiyar's and Pranatharthihara varadan. During ThiruAradhanam, Ubhaya Nachiyar's would not by either side of Perarulalan but both of them would be by his right side, this sevai is quite unique to this day of the Brahmotsavam.

After this mariyadai is done for archakar. followed by punyavajanam for pushkarani. The archakar, who had his mariyadai, would have dip in the pushkarani with the nithya thirumanjana moorthy.

Perarulalan and Nachiyar's got back to the kannadi arai.
