A photograph of several large decorated deity murti standing on a raised platform under a pink and white canopy in a temple-like hall. The central figure is a multi-armed goddess with a golden halo and crown, holding a weapon in one raised hand and a lotus-like object in another, flanked by two ornate arches. To the left and right stand other goddess murti with garlands of white and red flowers, one holding a veena-like instrument. A white metal staircase runs up the platform in front, and small brass lamps and flower offerings sit at the base. Ornate golden arches frame each figure. Ceiling lights and a red digital clock appear overhead.
