Photograph of a temple shrine hall with a golden-painted back wall and a corrugated roof with ceiling fans. Centre, on a raised dais, a large deity murti sits on a throne with a red canopy and kalasha-like crown, decorated with garlands, while a person in white ritual clothes stands before it holding a lamp. Flanking alcoves hold dark stone statues: a bull (nandi) on the left, and other deity figures in orange-backed niches, one wearing a green skirt. Below, a long row of banana-leaf or plate offerings of fruit, sweets and cooked food is spread on a striped mat, with a green-garlanded pot and a seated ornamented figure in front of the central dais.
