A photograph inside a golden-arched shrine with a deity murti of a seated couple, gilded and garlanded, one holding a trident, set against a red and purple backdrop. In front, a smiling man with long dark hair sits on a red-and-gold throne chair, wearing an orange robe and layered red, pink and white flower garlands. A man in a light blue t-shirt and dark trousers kneels barefoot at his feet, bowing and touching the orange cloth on a footstool, in what appears to be a honouring gesture. Oil lamps stand at the left edge, and flower petals scatter the stone platform. Orange drapes frame the pillared temple hall.
