A photograph inside a temple-style room with a mustard-yellow wall and a white tiled floor. A row of dark stone siddha statues sits on maroon platforms, each draped in orange-red cloth with gold borders and garlanded with yellow and white flowers, and small oil lamps glow at their bases. Three devotees stand before them: a woman in a purple top and olive skirt, a woman in a green sari with a pink shawl holding a sheet of paper, and an older man in a blue jacket and white dhoti. At right, an orange-draped table holds brass plates with bananas, flowers, brass lamps and steel bowls, and a woman in gold bangles tends the offerings. The scene shows siddha puja and darshan.
