A photograph inside an ornate temple shrine with carved stone pillars and a gilded arch framing a red curtain. Behind a golden throne stands a deity murti with a red and gold turban, a trident and a red-and-gold garland, beside a second female figure in gold and red. Seated on the golden throne is a man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala, smiling, with his hands resting on the armrest; the appearance cues are ordinary saffron clothing and a mala, insufficient for identification, so he is described by role as a seated figure in saffron robes. A man in a white t-shirt stands before him, a bald man in orange robes covers his mouth, and a woman in a blue patterned sari reaches out. Gold oil lamps line the shrine and a man in white stands at left.
