This temple has been built to appease the goddess of wealth, Laxmi. Legend has it that an Indian contractor who was supposed to build a sea wall joining Malabar Hill and Worli at the end of the 18th century for the British, claimed that the goddess appeared in his dreams and asked him to build this temple at this site. Surprise suprise...a small statue of the goddess was unearthed from the ground, and so the area was declared a holy site. And this is where the contractor built his temple, which today is called the Mahalaxmi Temple. Believers come from all over the country to pay their respects here.
