On one stone tablet it is mentioned that formerly a queen covered the Deity with gold plate. This is mentioned in the Visakhapatnam Gazetteer. About the temple, there are residential quarters for the priests and devotees. Indeed, at the present moment there are many residential quarters to accommodate visiting devotees. The original Deity is situated within the depths of the temple, but there is another Deity, a duplicate, known as the vijaya-mūrti. This smaller Deity can be moved from the temple and taken on public processions. Priests who generally belong to the Rāmānuja-sampradāya are in charge of the Deity worship.

This place is known as Simhacalam , The hill of the lion.In Satya Yuga when Lord Narasimha appeared at Ahovalam and killed Hiranyakasipu ,Lord Narasimha had previously appeared to Prahlada Maharaja at Simhacalam.
This form is half Varaha and half Narasimha, the face is that of Lord Varaha and the body is of Lord Narasimha:
In Simhacalam ,Lord Varaha Narasimha is getting a new covering of Chandan during during Chandan yatra in May, as instructed by Lord Varaha Narasimha Himself to Urvasi and King Pururava (they are mentioned in the 9th Canto and in the Aila Gita of the 11 Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam)
According to the Sthala Purana there they once looked for this temple of Varaha Narasimha as they where flying around enjoying themselves in a heavenly airplane in the beginning of Treta yuga ,Urvasi had witnessed the installation of Varaha Narasimha the self manifested deity , to Prahlada Maharaja(then installed by Prahlada and Lord Brahma himself and all the devas, including the apsaras like Urvasi etc) .This is the place where Prahlada Maharaja was thrown of the cliff into the Ocean, this pastimes is also explained in great detail in Narasimha purana.
There is a painting of Jadurani where Prahlada Maharaja is saved by Krsna from the fall and Srila Prabhupada commented that Prahlada Maharaja had a transcendental body and could not be harmed, this also is seen in the Narasimha Purana where it is explained Prahlada Maharaja was not harmed by being thrown in the ocean, and according to the Sthala Purana (the hill of the lion), Lord Narasimha appeared as Half Varaha half Narasimha, the face is that of Lord Varaha and the body of Lord Narasimha, this was to reassure Prahlada Maharaja that just as Hiranyakasa had been killed by Lord Varaha his demoniac father would also be killed by Lord Narasimha. (correction here )n the prayers of Sanideva to Lord Narasimha we find this sloka: yo naija bhaktam analämbudhi bhüdharogra | sringa-prapäta visa dhamti sarisupebhyah | sarvätmakaù parama-käruniko raraksa | sa tvam nrsimha mayi dehi krpä-valokam ||6|| You protected your own devotee Prahläda from a raging fire, the deep ocean, from falling from a tall mountain peak, poison, a mad elephant and the fangs of poisonous serpents. You are omnipresent and supremely generous. O Lord Nrsimha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.
The fire described is in regards to the sister of Hiranyakasipu, Holika that tried to burn Prahlada Maharaja, having obtained the boon of Lord Siva that the blanket he gave her would protect her from fire, but while sitting in the fire with Prahlada Maharaja only she got burned to ashes and thus this festival of Holi is there to commemorate this mercy of Lord Narasimha on Prahlada.When The asuras threw Prahlada over the cliff (this spot is still there at Simhacalam) and then threw a mountain on top after Prahlada was thrown of the cliff and Varaha Narasimha protected Prahlada for all this as described in the SthalaPurana there at Simhacalam,also many details are given ,and in the Visnu Purana gives lengthy details of the sufferings that Hiranyakasipu tried to inflict on Prahlada and it is also mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam SB 7.5.39-40: The demons [Raksasas], the servants of Hiranyakasipu, thus began striking the tender parts of Prahlada Maharaja's body with their tridents. The demons all had fearful faces, sharp teeth and reddish, coppery beards and hair, and they appeared extremely threatening. Making a tumultuous sound, shouting, "Chop him up! Pierce him!" they began striking Prahlada Maharaja, who sat silently, meditating upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead. SB 7.5.41: Even though a person who has no assets in pious activities performs some good deed, it will have no result. Thus the weapons of the demons had no tangible effects upon Prahlada Maharaja because he was a devotee undisturbed by material conditions and fully engaged in meditating upon and serving the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is unchangeable, who cannot be realized by the material senses, and who is the soul of the entire universe. SB 7.5.42: My dear King Yudhihira, when all the attempts of the demons to kill Prahlada Maharaja were futile, the King of the demons, Hiranyakasipu, being most fearful, began contriving other means to kill him. SB 7.5.43-44: Hiranyakasipu could not kill his son by throwing him beneath the feet of big elephants, throwing him among huge, fearful snakes, employing destructive spells, hurling him from the top of a hill, conjuring up illusory tricks, administering poison, starving him, exposing him to severe cold, winds, fire and water, or throwing heavy stones to crush him. When Hiranyakasipu found that he could not in any way harm Prahlada, who was completely sinless, he was in great anxiety about what to do next.
Later (correction 2 )Lord Brahma installed Prahlada Maharaja at the king of Earth at Simhacalam and all the demigods and sages from the whole universe assembled there . After Lord Narasimha disapperared the Lord manifested this self manifested form of Sri Varaha Narasimha .
