A photograph inside a gold-decorated shrine showing a seated statue, a murti-style figure in red turban and ornate attire, heavily garlanded with pink and white flowers, with folded hands, set on a golden throne flanked by two golden lion sculptures. A standing priest in orange dhoti and orange head cloth, bare-chested with rudraksha mala, pours or offers from a white bowl toward the statue. A white-draped altar holds a heap of red and white flowers, brass vessels and plates of offerings. This appears to be a pushpabhisekam and flower-decoration ritual.
