Dear Venketesh, Maybe it was Jambavan, but the temple is Saiva : covered with strange makaras, unhappy bharavahakas, emaciated rishis, an 8' 'Pasupati' made up of different animals, & lots of bug-eyed sea creatures.
If you want to see unusual Hindu sculpture, I recommend going to AIIS website dsal.uchicago.edu/images/ American Institute of Indian Studies : enter TALA. Kathie
