A metal deity murti of Murugan-like form stands in a fully garlanded alcove framed by bands of red, yellow, purple and white flower garlands with a green leaf crest. The murti wears a crown, layered gold and green necklaces, a white sash and a peacock-feather-style ornament, holding a staff-like object. Beneath it sits a green cloth and a yellow fruit offering on a purple cloth base. Two priests in white dhoti-style clothing with gold-bordered shawls and white turbans stand at either side, adorning the murti with garlands; the left priest has white sandal-paste markings on his arms and holds a garland with clasped hands, while the right priest lifts a garland overhead. A painted deity figure with a mustache and red face appears in the background, along with decorative lights and gold-trimmed ornate carvings. No a person candidate is visible.
