A small shrine table draped in red cloth holds a printed cutout of two smiling men in saffron-orange robes and orange turbans, each wearing floral garlands; the figure on the left shows a rudraksha mala, the figure on the right a long beard and ceremonial necklaces, and both have hands raised in blessing. A white paper sign on the table reads "KAILASA HOSUR". In front stand brass and gold-toned deity figures, a small framed picture of a deity, a brass bell, a lit oil lamp on a plate, copper cups and a small kalasha-style vessel with red flowers. The printed figures are depictions, not physical people.
