A golden deity murti of a goddess stands before a large gilded multi-headed serpent hood at night. The figure wears a magenta and green silk sari with gold border, layered silver necklaces, a jewelled crown, and is garlanded with yellow marigolds and red roses; one hand holds a rose. The statue stands on a coiled gilded serpent base on white and red striped steps. In the blurred background, several people in white and pink clothing sit on mats, and a faint line of lights is visible.

Flanking it are two smaller garlanded vessels or kalasha-like objects with yellow flowers and mango leaves, on a red draped table.
