A golden deity murti seated on a purple cushion beneath a gilded arch with a teal shimmering backdrop. The male figure wears an orange turban, orange and gold garments and multiple rudraksha malas, holding a trident-like staff; the female figure wears red and orange silk with a red garland in her hair and layered white necklaces. A white conical shivalinga-like form draped with white flower and kumkum sits before them, surrounded by a red bead garland, a yellow flower garland, bananas and tropical fruits. A small white marble seated figure with raised hand stands in front, with a small brass lamp to the right. No physical people are present.

A temple shrine with a large deity murti of a seated Shiva and Parvati, both richly dressed in saffron and yellow garments with gold jewellery and garlands. Shiva holds a trident and an upright object, and the pair sit on a dark stone peetha within a golden arch framed by teal and turquoise drapery. Before them is a white lingam-like form with orange and yellow garlands, flowers and green pods, plus a white seated figure at the base. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, and a small standing statue in white robes with a turban and beads stands in a gold niche to the right, with white ritual powder scattered on the floor.
