A golden statue seated on a gilded throne-like pedestal in a temple shrine, against a magenta drape and gold-leaf wall. The statue wears an orange-and-maroon turban with a jeweled ornament, a rudraksha-style mala and layered gold necklaces, an orange silk garment, and a garland of marigolds and white flowers. Its right hand is raised in abhaya mudra. Before it sit a brass plate with bananas, white flowers and a lit oil lamp, a small kalasha-like vessel, a bell, and a brass oil lamp stand. A gold trident stands to the left. A printed sign reading KAILASA SALEM BHARATH shows a portrait of a smiling figure in an orange turban beside a temple illustration.
