A rudraksha mala hangs at his chest. Beside him stands a large dark bronze Nataraja-style dancing Shiva figure, adorned with a red and orange cloth, a white flower garland and a multicoloured garland, set in a circular arch. In front of the statue are a tall brass oil lamp, potted plants and flower-decorated kalasha-style pots. Hanging brass lamps are suspended from the ceiling, and green drapes frame the scene.
