Devotees file through a narrow temple corridor toward an illuminated shrine framed by draped cloth in pink and maroon, with a white-and-red ornamented deity murti visible at the far end. In the foreground a woman in an orange sari with a yellow flower in her hair walks ahead, followed by people in white, yellow and green clothing and a woman in a long white top. On the right, two bare-chested men wear white dhoti-style garments with gold borders, and a wooden panelled door stands open beside them. The scene shows the Vaikunta Ekadasi darshan procession at a Hindu temple, with people entering through the dwaram toward the sanctum.
