Overview
The exact Panchmukhi Hanuman Mandir is on Ramkrishna Chemburkar Marg in Chembur Colony / Kurla East. The supplied short link resolves to 19.0454375, 72.8934285.
The source records a standing Panchmukhi form and provides four mantras in Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Kannada, Telugu and Malayalam. All twenty-four script variants are retained below.
Temple-specific founder, establishment year, administration, entrance/deity direction and architecture are not publicly documented; generic Panchmukhi assumptions are not presented as local facts.
Main Deity and Sacred Forms
Standing posture
Retained as a source-recorded temple detail; independent current visual confirmation was not found.
Five-face doctrine
Hanuman, Narasimha, Garuda, Varaha and Hayagriva are the general theological faces, not a verified local icon inventory.
Other images
A visitor directory mentions Ganesha and Durga, but no official sub-shrine inventory is published.
Name and Meaning
Panchmukhi means five-faced. The form is associated with multidirectional protection, strength, discernment and service to Rama.
Sacred Story and Legend
The general Panchmukhi tradition recounts Hanuman taking five faces to defeat Ahiravana and rescue Rama and Lakshmana. It explains the deity form but is not the documented foundation story of this Chembur shrine.
No reliable temple-specific foundation narrative, founder or establishment date was located.
