Dear All, I would like to make an important correction in this subject which many people including scholars make a mistake.Ananthaalwan is different from Ananthalwar.Ananthalwan is AADISHESHAN and Ananthalwar is one of the 74 Simhaasanaadipathis established by Sri Raamaanujaa.So, dont get confused.
