A standing person in a rust-orange and gold-bordered dhoti and matching shawl, wearing a gold beaded necklace and a rudraksha mala, smiles and raises a hand in greeting beside an ornate gold palanquin-style vehicle. The palanquin carries a decorated deity murti dressed in a silver crown and a jewelled necklace, with layered garlands of yellow, red, green and white flowers. Golden swan or peacock-head finials, bells and tassels hang from the vehicle, and a white floor-standing air conditioner stands at left against a pale wall.
