Indoor temple puja in a shrine room with gold-arched niches and yellow curtains. Four people are visible: a woman in a white sari with a gold border reads from an open book on the left; an older woman in white with a red shawl holds a metal plate; a bare-chested man in a white dhoti performs the ritual at a central altar; and a bare-chested man in a white dhoti and mask holds a garland of lemons and marigolds over a decorated deity murti. Behind them stand carved deity statues, and the altar table holds brass plates, bowls of rice and vegetable curry, mangoes, pomegranate, flower petals, and a ring of green limes around a blue-draped murti.
