Indoor shrine photograph showing a gold-framed altar draped with a red cloth, with three deity murtis in garlands: a figure with a crown and trident at centre, flanked by two female figures in green and red saris. To the right sits a seated figure in saffron clothing and a saffron turban wrapped with a gold ornament, with a yellow marigold garland and a gold necklace; this is a statue, not a living person. On the floor before the altar are rows of small brass and earthen bowls filled with coloured offerings, yellow and white flower heaps in brass plates, a steel vessel with banana leaf covering, and white cloth bundles. No people are visible.
