A dark stone deity murti stands in front of a large black circular halo-like backdrop decorated with bamboo rays festooned with dried and fresh flowers. The figure is heavily garlanded with red rose garlands, yellow marigold strands, white jasmine and green lemon-like fruit beads, with a silver-and-jewelled necklace and a mustard-yellow cloth at the waist. A potted palm and red and yellow petals sit at the base beside the pedestal. No living people are visible, so the scene is a decorated murti rather than a gathering.
