Interior photo of a small shrine room at KAILASA Avadi with orange walls and a gold-framed arch holding deity murtis draped in marigold garlands, with a sign reading KAILASA AVADI on the wall. Four seated people sit on a tiled floor before the shrine: two women in saree with hands folded in prayer, one in a blue-grey saree and one in a pink saree, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a rudraksha mala beside a brass vessel, and a bare-chested boy in a white dhoti. Brass lamps, a kalasha-like pot, a brass bell and plate with offerings are arranged before the deities, consistent with an abhishekam puja. A framed statue of a figure in saffron with a crown and rudraksha mala sits on a left-side platform; a statue of a seated figure in white with a shaved head holds a staff, and no clear identification can be made from appearance.A bare-chested priest in a white dhoti with a gold border pours liquid from a small vessel over a copper-toned metal deity murti during abhishekam. He wears glasses and a beaded wrist band. Two standing metal deity figures are visible, one holding a flute and a conch-like object, and one in an orange cloth holding a lamp. A smaller figure stands at the left, and a seated figure in a red and gold garment is blurred in the background. A brass kalasha sits on the wooden table, and petals are scattered on the platform. Blue draped cloth and a gold arch frame the shrine.A woman in a pink saree with a pink-and-green patterned border and a white flower in her hair stands at a wooden table pouring white liquid from a brass pot over a bronze deity murti. The murti is a standing figure with a tall crown, holding a conch-like object, draped in orange cloth and covered with white residue from the abhishekam.
