A man with long swept-back dark hair, bare-chested, wearing a red-brown dhoti with a gold waistband, a red and white flower garland and gold armbands, stands beside a large gilded deity murti of Durga with a yellow face, red-lined eyes and an ornate golden crown. He reaches out to touch the murti's raised arm, which holds a trident-like staff. Behind them are carved gold halo panels with faces, a canopy, a loudspeaker and a red-numbered display board. Smoke or incense haze fills the air.
