A gilded metal deity murti stands at the centre, decorated with heavy garlands of yellow and orange marigolds, purple flowers, red roses and white jasmine strands, with green leaves framing it. The murti wears an ornate silver-and-gold crown, an elaborate jewelled necklace and a red and orange cloth around the waist. Golden arches and an orange shade canopy surround it. Behind the murti, a large smiling face of a man in an orange garment is partially visible at the left edge, and a red-and-orange banner with Kannada script fills the right side. The scene suggests a puja or alankaram display of the murti.
