Close view of two golden metal murti statues decorated with marigold and red flower garlands. The left figure wears an orange turban, a vertical tilak, a blue garment, rudraksha beads and a heart-shaped pendant, and holds a trident-shaped staff. The right figure wears a dark conical crown with white beads, red and gold ornaments, and a green parrot perches near its raised hand. A reddish-orange wall forms the background. These are statues, not living people, so no candidate is shown as present.
