A temple shrine with a gilded arch framing a large deity murti decorated with marigold and multicolour flower garlands, offering plates of flowers and fruit on a stone platform.

Brass lamps, kalasha vessels and brass lamp stands surround the shrine, with palm fronds and white flower arrangements at the sides under a blue curtain.
