A golden shrine arch framing two large deity murti seated together on a red-draped platform, one holding a trident and the other a lotus-like object, both adorned with jewelled necklaces, crowns and gold ornaments. A golden kalasha-like vessel sits at the front, garlanded with marigold and multicoloured flower strands. Gold oil lamps stand on either side, and a printed photograph of a saffron-robed man with long hair and a rudraksha mala is placed in front on a golden seat, a printed image rather than a physically present person. Grey carved stone walls surround the shrine.
