A woman in a white sari with a mustard-yellow blouse lights an oil lamp at a decorated shrine inside a gilded temple hall. She has her hair in a bun and wears glasses. Behind her stands a golden-brown deity murti seated on a lion-like mount, garlanded with marigolds, flanked by two gold-and-silver elephant figures. Tiered cones of red, yellow and white flowers stand on a maroon cloth, with a green-and-red garlanded idol in the centre. Small clay dolls, a brass bowl and plates with offerings sit on a gold-bordered table below. A sign reads KAILASA HYDERABAD BHARAT. The scene suggests a Navaratri worship setting.
