A crowded temple interior at night, with a dark stone wall, hanging bells and garlands of marigolds overhead. In the centre, a man in a red-maroon turban and saffron-red robe with a gold-and-yellow border wears long beaded rudraksha malas and a large gold ceremonial pendant; his hands are folded in greeting. He is flanked by a man in a grey shirt with a red lanyard on the left, a woman in a red sari with gold border and gold necklaces with hands folded, and shaved-headed priests in saffron and white with sacred ash markings. Devotees press behind in the dim hall, and a framed picture hangs on the back wall.

At centre, a man in a deep red-brown dhoti and gold-and-yellow shawl wears a rust-orange turban and heavy gold-toned beaded necklaces, with a gold pendant, and holds a small object in his hands; he appears to be a person figure given the turban, ornate gold necklaces and ceremonial attire.
