Two large deity murtis are seated side by side in a stone-pillared shrine with red curtains, garlanded with thick bands of yellow, red, white and purple flowers. The central figures wear silver and red jewelled adornments, orange and blue dress, and crowns, one holding a staff. Brass standing lamps flank the murtis, and a golden processional or abhishekam vessel sits in front, with smaller garlanded idols and a kalasha-style offering at the base.
