Photograph of a temple shrine doorway framed by pink walls with teal and yellow trim. A bare-shouldered priest in an orange-red dhoti and shawl, with long hair pulled back, stands at left with his arm raised, touching a blue-clad deity murti decorated with white flower garlands and a silver-white crown. Behind the murti, gold-painted panels and green and yellow drapes frame the sanctum. Brass and silver ritual vessels, small lamps and bowls of offerings sit on a stepped platform in front of the deity. Appears to be a puja or abhishekam in progress.
