In the left foreground a bare-chested man with a white-painted forehead, a red tilak dot, a grey moustache and many rudraksha malas stands beside a brass lamp with yellow flowers, touching it with one hand. Behind him stands a large cut-out portrait of a smiling figure in a red turban and red robes with a marigold garland and rudraksha malas, next to an ornate gilded deity murti with multiple arms, draped in garlands. Framed portraits and a small framed picture sit on a wooden cabinet at right, and a sign on the wall reads KAILASA KORATTUR. A leopard-print cloth covers the altar table, and a small oil lamp burns near the front.
