A temple-style puja altar draped in red cloth with a large spoked wheel behind a sculpted deity murti in a multi-armed form. In front sits a gold-finished bull (Nandi) statue draped with an ornate cloth, beside clay pots and potted green plants. A printed photo-cutout of a smiling man in a red-orange turban and saffron-red robe, wearing a red and white flower garland and holding flowers, stands on a tiger-striped cloth on the altar, a printed portrait not a physical person. A blurred oil lamp flame is in the left foreground, and wooden doors with decorative hanging panels frame the scene. No physical people are visible.
