Nithyanandapedia
A deity murti of Vishnu in Tirupati-style form is almost completely covered by thick garlands of red and magenta roses, white jasmine strands, yellow marigolds and green leaves. The figure wears a tall jewelled crown with a Vaishnava U-shaped tilak on the forehead, and ornate silver-gold ornaments, necklaces and armlets with gemstones. Gold-bordered yellow silk cloth drapes behind the garlands, and a red brocade cloth covers the altar base. The setting appears to be an indoor shrine with orange walls, decorated for a festive puja or alankaram.
