Inside the niche is a deity murti draped in garlands of white and red flowers, and a bald figure in a saffron cloth with a beaded band and gold bangle reaches toward the marble wall. Rose petals and white jasmine garlands line a stone ledge at right. At left, an older priest with bare upper body and orange-red markings holds a brass tray of pink flowers beside a brass oil lamp. A wall clock is visible in the upper left.
