A silhouetted figure in a saffron-orange robe with a long rudraksha mala stands in the foreground, back to the camera, facing the shrine. Inside the shrine, a pair of large deity murtis sit on a raised seat, one with a trident and orange drape, the other in pink and red with a red-bordered sari, both garlanded with marigolds and flowers. A smaller golden figure stands at the right in a niche against a green curtain. Brass lamps and flower offerings sit on the altar, and a pink-and-white garlanded platform lies at the front.
