A priest with a bare upper body and white sacred markings on his chest sits at a microphone in front of a deity murti, performing puja. He wears a dark rudraksha mala and glasses, and holds his hands together near a small brass plate of flowers. The black stone murti is dressed in red silk with a white silver crown, silver armour-like ornaments, and a garland of yellow and red flowers, set within a golden arch on a yellow sparkled backdrop. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides, and a brass kalasha-style vessel with red flowers sits at the front.
