The murti is garlanded with bands of red, white, yellow, green and purple flowers, and it wears a blue garment and golden ornaments.

On the far right, an older bald man in glasses and a striped shirt with white dhoti sits with palms pressed together in prayer. A white air conditioner stands behind them. This appears to be a devotional prayer or satsang gathering.
