It is believed in Skandapuran that Lord Parashuram had worshiped Lord Shiva on the peak of Varunavat mountain to calm his anger.

Lord Shiva was pleased with his worship and appeared before him. Then the anger of Lord Parshuram calmed down. For this, Parashuram said that Lord Shiva would be seated here in the form of Shivankshalag. From then till today the surrounding villagers also worship this place in the name of Vimleshwar Mahadev.
