A temple puja before a richly decorated murti seated on a red throne-like base within a golden arched shrine. The murti wears an orange and red garment, a jeweled crown, a large blue-and-white gem necklace and gold armlets, and is framed by a mound of yellow, white, red and pink flower garlands. A bare-chested priest with white sacred markings and an orange cloth draped over his shoulder stands at left, extending a ritual item toward the figure. Golden ornamental panels, hanging brass lamps and a colourful flag decorate the background. Printed text at the bottom reads Laghu Puja to The SPH Nithyanandeshwara Paramashivam, with a second line for Nithyanandotsavam 2021 Day 14.
