Sri: 
Srimathe Rangaramanuja Mahadesikaya Namaha
 
Dear Sri Shrinidhi,
 
It is certainly very appropriate for qualified prapannas to recite 
this mantra as well as all other vedic mantras.
  
1. All vedic mantras (in fact, each "aksharam" of the Veda) 
are in praise of Hari, i.e. Sriman Narayana - the antaryami of all 
beings. This has to be kept in mind while reciting.

Sri U. Ve. Anantha Narasimhachar Swamy, Srikaryam of Srimath
Poundarikapuram Ashramam quotes Maharishi Veda-Vyasa while 
elaborating this sometime back:
http://www.ibiblio.org/sripedia/mpg/pp2.mpg

2. The latest issue of Sri Ranganatha Paduka, there is a 
clarification to a reader's similar query by one of the foremost
authorities of Veda bhashyam today - Sri U.Ve. Ganapadi Mannargudi 
Desikachar Swami. 

Certain other "mantras" and "devata-gayatri-s", which are 
not "apauresheyam" in nature, and have been appended in more  recent 
times can be avoided, but there is no restriction on reciting any 
part of the Vedam.

3. Not all the divinities mentioned in the Sruti can be 
directly mapped to namesake mentioned in the Puranas.
 
4. Please watch and listen to this video clip of Acharya 
sambhavana offered by some of the most faithful followers of our 
Srivaishnava sampradayam to Swami Desikan - one of the greatest 
exponents of Prapatti-marga.

Hope this helps.
