Photo of a neivethiyam ritual at a temple shrine on a yellow wall with an orange-draped altar. Three deity murtis stand behind, garlanded in white flowers, with a gold trident and staff on either side. A framed portrait sits on the altar, and a sign above reads KAILASA TONDIARPET. At the right, a bare-chested elderly priest in white dhoti kneels with his back to the camera, facing the altar. A young boy in dark clothes kneels in front of brass ritual vessels on a green cloth, and another child in pink sits at the right. Several figures are visible near the altar, and a banner with red and blue panels hangs on the right wall.
