A photograph of a ritual display with three decorated kalasha pots wrapped in white and yellow flower garlands, red roses and green leaves, and ornate jeweled metallic embellishments with gemstone-like inserts. Brass oil lamps stand at the left and right edges on a red cloth-covered table, with a gold drape behind and a small decorated pot with a blue backdrop above. Bowls of fruit, flowers and offerings sit in front, along with scattered marigold petals. No people are visible, and the scene reads as a puja or abhishekam setup.

A decorated ritual arrangement on a green and red silk-draped altar. A tall ceremonial kalasha-like form with a golden face, crown and a sequined, jewelled collar stands at centre, flanked by two large coconuts wearing gold-beaded, jewelled necklace-shaped adornments. In front are three small metal figures in red garments and garlands, one centre figure with a red cloth draped over its shoulders. Green and blue-striped threads hang from the decorations and a green leafy base sits beneath. No physical people are visible.

Three decorated brass kalasha pots stand on a red draped table before a gold-draped backdrop with a blue inner panel. Each kalasha is wrapped in white jasmine garlands, red roses and green leaves, with mango leaves and a coconut-topped crown, and bears a jewelled silver-and-stone ornament. Brass oil lamps stand at the left and right edges, and small brass bowls with flowers, fruit and offerings sit at the base. A small decorated kalasha or idol sits centrally on a pedestal with a white garland. No people are visible.

Behind it stand several decorated kalasha pots wrapped in red, pink, green and yellow cloth with mango-leaf and coconut-style tops, and a central deity murti dressed in a colourful silk garment and garlands. In front, three small pots are wrapped in striped white and red cloth with cones of blue, pink and orange fabric on top, set on banana leaves beside bananas, apples and oranges. No people are visible.

Several clay pots are dressed with green mango leaves, white jasmine garlands and patterned cloth wrapped around them.

A photograph of a table set for puja, draped in a yellow and gold embroidered cloth with pink and green accents. Three small deity murtis sit on raised silver-and-gold trays, each with orange and red flowers. The left figure is a male deity with a red turban and rudraksha-style beaded adornments. The centre figure is a goddess seated in a red cloth draped over a layered jewelled necklace, with a white flower on her head. The right figure is a four-armed goddess in a red sari with a crown, holding a lotus-like object, with jewelled garlands. A silver tray in front holds a small cup, a silver bowl of fruit, and yellow flowers. No people are visible; the figures are statues and the scene is a puja arrangement.
