A small home shrine arranged for Diwali puja in a domestic room. A life-size cardboard cutout of a smiling bearded man in an orange-red turban, rudraksha-style garlands, gold necklaces and orange robe sits on a tiger-striped cloth, one hand raised in blessing. Brass oil lamps with lit wicks, a brass plate of rose petals, bananas, pears, pomegranates, pineapples, oranges, coconuts and a bowl of green chillies and limes form the offerings. Red roses sit in a blue vase. A maroon hanging shows a carved temple deity image and a carved nandi bull. No people are physically present.
