Photograph inside a pillared temple hall with a corrugated roof and exposed red beams. Four bare-chested priests in orange-saffron dhotis stand in a row along an orange cloth-draped platform, holding oil lamps toward a golden shrine. The shrine holds deity murti decorated with garlands and red-and-white cloth, flanked by gold lattice screens and a red curtain. Two large screens hang from the ceiling, and framed portraits line the side walls. The priests perform a padapuja for Pongal celebrations, offering lamps during the Shiva Surya Puja.
