A tall orange-painted pillar rises from a red-and-ochre stepped plinth, topped with a straw-wrapped element and a small lantern-like shrine. In the foreground, a black stone Nandi bull statue sits on a red pedestal, draped with a green cloth and a garland of yellow and white flowers. Coconut palms and leafy green shrubs surround the paved courtyard, and a small golden ladder-like frame stands to the right. A surveillance camera is mounted on the pillar. No people are visible.
