A temple shrine photograph showing a large deity murti pair seated on a raised golden-orange platform under a gold arch, draped in red and orange silk and framed by garlands of yellow and red marigold flowers. The central figure wears a red turban, heavy gold necklaces and a red sari-like garment, with arms raised holding ritual objects; the companion figure wears a tall crown and red attire. Before them sits a small white marble statue of a seated figure in meditation, and a shivalinga-like orange-draped object stands in the centre. Brass lamp stands with tall white candles flank the shrine, and a small devotee statue with folded hands stands in a side niche. No living people are prominently visible apart from a partially visible figure at the lower right corner.
