He wears gold bangles and a gold ear ornament, and a green parrot perches on his shoulder. He is arranging red rose garlands and white jasmine strands over the murti, which stands beneath a gold canopy with green and gold brocade draped at the sides. Gold kalasha-style vessels, a gold lamp and flower-decorated shrine surfaces are visible, with red roses and green leaves along the altar edges.
