A black stone deity murti stands in a thatched-roofed open shrine with carved gold-coloured arch pillars. The four-armed figure wears a golden conical crown, a red tilak, layered jewelled necklaces and a white and green flower garland, with a teal silk cloth draped over the lower body. The murti rests on a dark pedestal scattered with petals and leaves, set on a white base painted with a red and blue band. Trees and a bamboo fence stand behind. No people are visible.
