A photograph inside a temple shrine showing a decorated deity murti pair on a raised altar, adorned with multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, purple and white. The central figure wears a red crown and ornaments, and a beside figure wears a crown and pink-and-gold garment. In front, a small seated figure in orange clothing and a red-and-white garland is decorated with flowers. Two standing attendants in saffron and orange clothes face the altar; the nearer one, a woman with long dark hair in an orange garment, holds a plate. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides, and a green banana leaf appears at the right edge. Stone pillars frame the shrine.
