Three deity murtis are decorated for a festival procession on temple steps. The central figure wears an ornate gold crown, a large gold necklace, and an orange-red shawl. Flanking figures wear dark crowns, gold jewellery and red garments, all draped with heavy garlands of yellow marigolds, white jasmine and purple flowers. Brass kalasha pots with green leaves and sheaves of dried grass stand in front of the platform. Behind, white-clad devotees climb the steps, and a child in pink and an orange-robed figure appear at a doorway.
