A priest in a white dhoti and white turban performs a lamp ritual before a row of three decorated deity murtis in a shrine. The priest is bare-chested, wears a brown rudraksha-style mala and holds a brass aarti lamp with flame toward the central figure. The central murti wears a blue and purple silk garment, a silver crown and a dense garland of yellow, green, orange and red flowers. Flanking murtis wear gold crowns and matching floral garlands. A sign reads KAILASA TONDIARPET, and a lit oil lamp and flower offerings sit at the base. A framed portrait of a bearded man in a corner is a printed image, not a person in the scene. Arati ritual under the Deepam Brahmotsavam programme.
