This village has a population of 5,775.[4] Its residents speak Telugu, Urdu and Kannada. It is located 37 kilometres (23 mi) from Tandur and 100 kilometres (62 mi) west of Hyderabad. Buses connect this village to Zaheerabad, Tandur and Vikarabad. The nearest railway station, at Kohir is 18 kilometres (11 mi) away. Named after a huge mango tree, that had a gaping hole in its huge trunk, the village that borders Karnataka, has a two-hundred year old temple of Sri Venkateswara, whose idol was unearthed from a farm a kilometre away and consecrated outside the village. The deity, being carted by village leaders, refused to enter the village gate, still existing in a partial form. The annual festival is held on Chaitra Pournima (full Moon Day) corresponding to about April.
