The figure on the left wears a gold necklace, bangles, a dark headband and white forehead markings, and a gold-bordered orange dhoti. The figure on the right, bare-chested with rudraksha malas and a heavy gold chain, sits cross-legged with a microphone before him, his forehead marked with white and red vibhuti and kumkum. Behind them a blue double door is decorated with a peacock painting and above it a colourful relief of a multi-armed deity murti flanked by elephants. A striped rug lies on the floor. Printed Tamil text on the door lintel reads as a temple-style inscription.
