Two golden metal statues of deities stand before a deep red curtain. The figure on the left, with a trident (trishula) in one raised hand and a rudraksha mala and ornate chest pendant, wears an orange and gold turban and a red garment. The figure on the right wears an ornate crown with turquoise and red stones, a red sari with green border, a multi-strand necklace, and holds a small green parrot-like object in the hand. These are deity murtis, not living people, so no physical people are present.
