A photograph of a shrine interior showing a black deity murti dressed in white and red-bordered silk, with a white crown-like headdress, layered gold-and-red garments, and garlands of yellow flowers draped across the figure. The murti sits before a golden arched backdrop on a dark stone platform, flanked by tall brass oil lamps with lit flames and wooden cabinet doors. Framed portraits on the walls include a saint with a white beard in red robes, a figure with curly hair, and a bearded man in saffron-coloured robes with raised hand; these are printed portraits, not present people. No physical people are visible.
