A temple sanctum viewed down a narrow aisle lined with metal railings and a red carpet. At the far end, two large deity murtis stand on a grey stone pedestal, one in a red turban with rudraksha garlands and a raised hand, the other crowned and in blue and pink dress. Garlands of white and red flowers hang from the figures, a brass kalasha sits before them, and an orange cloth backdrop with gold arch framing surrounds the shrine. Red curtains hang at the left and a small attendant figure stands at the right. No living people are visible in the frame.
