- La description:
- Nataraja dances to the rhythm of celestial drummers. He is poised in the urdhvajanu posture, his left foot firmly grounded while his right leg is raised and folded inward. He is depicted with multiple arms adorned with various weapons and attributes. In his upper hands, Nataraja holds a sarpa (snake), a damaru (drum), and a pointed weapon, possibly a shula (spear) or a trishula (trident), symbolizing his mastery over cosmic forces. His frontal right hand is raised near his face in a gesture epitomizing the essence of his divine dance. Despite his broken left hand, Nataraja’s pose continues as he extends his front left hand in the gajahasta gesture, reminiscent of an elephant’s trunk. He is adorned with a jatamukuta (crown of matted hair) and ornaments, including circular earrings, broad necklaces, bangles, and anklets. His lower body is draped in a translucent dhoti with a sash hanging between his legs. Two drummers are carved at the bottom on both sides, adding a touch of celestial rhythm to this tableau.

- La description:
- Seated on a pedestal, Vishnu is depicted on the bhadra (central projection) of the rear wall of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). He possesses four arms and carries his divine attributes: a gada (mace) and a chakra (discus) in his upper hands, and a shankha (conch shell) in his lower left hand. His lower right hand extends in the varada hasta (boon-giving gesture), bestowing blessings to devotees.

- La description:
- One of the surasenakas (pediment made of chaitya dormer) features a sculpture capturing the divine dance of Shiva. From the rear, Shiva’s upper body twists towards the front, conveying dynamic movement and cosmic rhythm. Though some of his arms are now broken, remnants of divine attributes are visible, including a damaru (drum) symbolizing the rhythm of creation, and other sacred objects. One of his arms extends in the gajahasta gesture, resembling an elephant trunk. He has a jatamukuta (crown of matted hair), a moustache, and a beard, and he is surrounded by celestial gandharvas (celestial musicians). This sculpture captures the timeless essence of Shiva’s cosmic dance, embodying the eternal flow of creation, preservation, and destruction.
