Two men in saffron-orange robes walk down a red carpet past a metal railing toward a temple entrance. The man in front has long dark hair, a white forehead band with vibhuti marks, a rudraksha mala and a gold-coloured ceremonial necklace, and wears a saffron shawl. The man behind carries a silver tray holding a small lamp and flowers, with a white forehead band and a beaded mala. Behind them is an orange-curtained shrine with a gold frame containing a deity murti, and a wooden ratha or palanquin.
