Behind is a red-brick pedestal topped with a dark stone Nandi-like bull statue draped in a yellow-orange flower garland, with a tall copper-coloured pillar and coconut palms.

In the foreground, the ground is decorated with a rangoli-style chalk design of pink lotuses, yellow lotus motifs, blue geometric patterns and a white kolam-like geometric figure, with a small brass pot placed near the seated figure.
