A decorated altar table with a deity murti of a standing deity form, adorned with white jasmine garlands, a red rose garland and rudraksha beads, placed before a lavender draped backdrop. Peacock feather fans stand in a glass vase and a blue vase. A gold kalasha-shaped vessel and a gold lamp stand beside, with scattered white roses, red petals and red gerbera flowers on a pink patterned runner. A framed portrait on the right shows a smiling man in an orange-pink turban and saffron robe with a red tilak; he is a printed picture, not a physical person, and no name caption is visible. No physical people are present.
