Golden shrine interior with a gilded perforated lattice wall behind a seated figure on an ornate golden throne. The seated figure wears a gold crown, a red tilak on the forehead, a red and multicoloured garland, and a white beaded mala with a gold necklace; the appearance is uncertain, so the candidate is labelled unsure. In front, a shirtless young priest in a white dhoti kneels and arranges an orange cloth on the throne platform, which is decorated with pink and white flower petals. Two women kneel to the right in orange saris with white forehead markings and bangles, hands folded in namaskar. Woven striped mats cover the floor.
