The side walls of the garbhagriha have windows which are topped by double chaitya arches. The lower chaitya arch depicts the bust of a deity flanked by two celestial beings. The upper chaitya arch shows a grassamukha.
Southeast view of the mulaprasada (main temple). Comprising a mandapa (hall), antarala (vestibule or antechamber), and a garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) on its plan, the temple has a simple elevation with minimal decoration. Outside the main temple, there is a yajnakund for performing yajna and havan (fire rituals).
The jangha of the garbhagriha depicts a bhadra which is carved with the figure of deities. Apart from that the only decorative motif visible on the walls is a horizontal band of kirtimukha. Above the jangha, a varandika (shoulder) is carved which is made of mouldings including gaggarika and kapotapalika with a chaitya arch motif.
One of the mouldings on the vedibandha of the garbhagriha is the kumbha which is carved with figures of deities, apsaras, mithunas and maithunas. Here, both the mithuna and maithuna imagery can be seen. Mithuna represents a couple embracing each other where the male figure is softly pressing his partner’s breast. The maithuna, next to the couple, shows four figures engaged in amorous activities.
The garbhagriha presently in its elevation consists of the original vedibandha and jangha. The vedibandha comprises various mouldings and the jangha has a bhadra (central offset) and karna (corner projections). The jangha on the right of the temple, as seen in the image, is devoid of any sculpture on the bhadra niche but the other two sides are carved with the figures of deities.
The mandapa of the temple is open and has only base mouldings belonging to the old structure. It now has a smooth tile floor and there are two broad stairs at the end which lead to the main sanctum. A black stone figure of nandi facing the sanctum is placed on one of the stairs. The front wall of the main sanctum is also a new structure with a metal gate to enter the sanctum. The udumbar (threshold) of the sanctum has the original part of the temple which now is the only decorative element left of the entire façade.
The complex in which the present temple is situated is tightly paved with bricks whereas the mandapa in front of the main sanctum is refloored with modern tiles. The temple is covered with a metal sheet roof for shade. A set of steps lead up to the mandapa. A closer look of the steps reveals remnants of the original temple placed as decorations to the stairs. There is a small steel gate which further leads to the mandapa of the temple.
The foundation of this temple or subsidiary shrine (II), within the temple complex, suggests that this temple consisted of a mandapa, shallow antarala and a garbhagriha on the plan. Only the base mouldings of the temple survive.
The rear wall of the garbhagriha has a projection depicting a syncretic image. This image depicts Surya, Vishnu and Shiva coming together to form a deity called Hari-Hara Hiranyagarbha. The deity is depicted with three heads and six arms, standing alongside his attendants Dandaka and Pingala. Adorned with a beautiful crown and jewellery, the deity is wearing knee-length boots, which confirms that the frontal face and body represent Surya, who is shown holding flowers in both his hands. While in his upper hands, one can notice sarpa (snakes) which is an attribute of Shiva, and the lower arms grasp a shankha (conch shell) and chakra (discus), symbols associated with Vishnu.
One can notice the Chamunda imagery, on the south wall of the garbhagriha, with an emaciated body, dried and saggy breasts and a sunken belly. She has a jatamukuta and is adorned with ornaments. It is worth noticing that she is wearing a snake as her waist belt and carrying different astras and a bowl. Beneath the bhadra, on the vedibandha, a deity is shown seated on a pedestal, covered in vermilion which shows that the deity is worshipped regularly.
