A woman in a white sari with a red embroidered blouse kneels at a shrine, bending forward with her forehead touching the altar cloth in reverence. She wears a rudraksha mala around her neck and a gold bangle. Before her stands a golden deity murti of a goddess adorned with a pink and yellow flower garland, with a red bindi and gold jewellery. A brass tray holds a row of lit oil lamps and fruit, and marigold petals and kumkum lie scattered on the red cloth. Red and pink curtains, a gold-framed photograph and a multicoloured flag hang in the background.
