Thank you for posting this image. It seems to ba a member of the Lamiaceae (Labiatae) - square young stems and opposite decusste leaf arrangement. I understood Marikozhundhu to be Artemisia pallens in the Asteraceae and your photo is not Artemisia so i suspect the name is used for more than one plant. Many Lamiaceae are highly aromatic. Do you have any more detailed images - flowers perhaps - that might help the identification?
