Permission Denied Error

My concern was that when I have user www-data; mentioned in my config file,
why is nginx creating files for fastcgi_temp with user nginx and group nginx

I understand thats the default user:group while compiling was nginx:nginx
but shouldn't they be overridden by the option provided in nginx runtime
configuration file?
