Two gilded metal murti statues stand before a red and gold draped backdrop with an ornate golden arch. The left deity figure wears a red and gold turban with a peacock-feather ornament, a large ceremonial necklace and beaded garlands, an orange shawl, and holds a mace and a ceremonial staff. The right figure, with long dark hair and a jewelled headpiece, wears heavy gold and pearl necklaces and a magenta flower garland. Both are statues, not physical people, and no living person is visible.
