Photograph of a puja at a Hindu shrine with a gold arched backdrop and deep red curtains. In the centre, a deity murti in an ornate gold crown and jewellery stands among garlands of pink and white flowers, with bunches of rose and marigold arranged around it. Behind, a dark-faced deity figure wears a tall crown and rose-and-white garlands. In the foreground, a bare-chested priest in white dhoti sits on the floor holding a microphone and reading from a sheet, while a second man in white sits at the left edge. Brass and copper vessels, bananas, apples, rose petals and a plate of offerings are arranged on the floor, consistent with a puja or abhishekam.
