According to a popular belief, the Goddess gave sight to a soldier in King Tipu's arm. She appeared in his dreams and made him realize her presence. The soldier had a vision, where he would find her amongst neem trees of that place. As he got up the next day, he went and looked amongst the neem trees and found her presence. Since Amman Mari was found in a Dhandu she was glorified as Dhandumariamman.
