A golden statue seated on a gilded throne with a magenta cushioned back and an ornate gold arch. The murti wears a red and gold crown, a red and orange silk garment, a multi-strand gold necklace, and a garland of yellow and red flowers with a grey woven garland. Its right hand is raised in blessing. In front, on a lotus-shaped gold pedestal, sit a brass plate with limes, flowers, a small bowl and a kalasha-style vessel, with a brass bell and a trident (trishul) on stands at either side. A sign beside the throne reads KAILASA SALEM BHARATH with a small portrait of a smiling saffron-turbaned figure. Timestamp overlay: Nov. 17, 2024 6:22:18 a.m., Salem, Tamil Nadu.
