A bronze murti of a standing deity stands on a black reflective altar before a gilded shrine arch draped with red and gold cloth and red flower garlands. The figure wears a jeweled gold crown, a red tilak on the forehead, a multi-stone gold necklace with green, red and blue gems, and a magenta and teal silk dhoti with a red-gold border. Long black braided locks fall to the waist, and the raised right hand holds a pink flower petal. No physical people are visible; the figure is a statue.

A photograph of a gold-coloured metal statue of a standing figure on a pedestal, set before a red backdrop with a red flower garland. The figure wears an ornate jeweled crown, blue-and-white earrings, a layered pearl-and-bead necklace, and a red-pink dhoti with matching shawl draped over the shoulder. Long black hair falls down both sides. The palms are pressed together in anjali mudra at the chest, and the other hand is extended outward. Behind it stands a gold-embossed decorative altar panel. This is a statue, not a living person, so the people count is zero.

A metal devotional figure stands centrally in a temple shrine, shown as a statue rather than a living person. It has a jewelled ornate crown with blue and turquoise stones, long dark hair falling to the shoulders, a red tilak mark on the forehead, and a beaded pearl-like necklace. It wears a deep maroon silk garment with a purple and gold patterned waistband and a blue border with gold motifs, and raises one hand in blessing while the other hand is held open at the side. Behind it, ornate gilded shrine carvings, a teal cloth and scattered red petals fill the blurred background. No living people are visible.
