A photograph of a deity murti seated in front of a red velvet backdrop inside a gilded arched shrine. A hand in a cream sari sleeve with gold border pours white liquid, appearing to be milk, over the stone figure's head during abhishekam. The murti has a dark body, a red and gold sari draped over it, and a golden crown-like headdress, with small brass bells hanging in the background. No people are visible apart from the arm.
