A decorated altar with golden statues in a temple-style setting before red drapes. A seated deity murti in gold crown and robes sits centrally on a yellow throne-like seat, draped in dense garlands of red and white flowers, with a kumkum-marked face and a rudraksha-like necklace. Behind it, a tall gold-and-red deity murti holds a trident and a raised hand, beside a female figure in a white and orange sari. Standing statues on either side wear garlands of white and yellow flowers, one in a purple robe and one in a brown robe with a leopard-print headband. Brass oil lamps and flower petals lie on the stage floor below.
