- Description:
- Seen here is the interior of the mandapa (pillared hall) of the Jain Temple. The mandapa is astylar in plan meaning that the central portion does not contain any pillars. The pillars are lined along the corners of the mandapa. The entrance to the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) is right in front of the main north-facing entrance to the temple. The west and east sides of the mandapa have relief transepts. The stone interiors of the temple are heavily damaged owing to a bat infestation.

- Description:
- To the west of the main temple, there are remains of many other shrines which might have been part of a larger Jain complex. Most part of the superstructure of these shrines are dilapidated. These dismantled portions can be seen in the vicinity of the temple. The only noteworthy remains are damaged by colossal images of Jina. The temple plan consists of a mandapa (pillared hall) and a garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) in plan.

- Description:
- Seen here is a closer view of the partially preserved structure of the central shrine of the Someshwar Mahadev Temple. The remnants of the shikhara (superstructure) are ornate. At the base of the centre of the shikhara, there is a rectangular block that acts as the surasenaka of the shikhara. Although partially preserved, it is evident that the superstructure of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) of the central shrine was of the shekhari (multi-spire) variety. The mulashringa (main spire), pratyangas (minor limbs) and angas (major limbs) of the shikhara have intricate gavaksha (dormer windows) ornamentations.

- Description:
- Extant pillar from what was likely a torana (decorative arch) that must have been part of the archway on the northern side of the temple. The pillar is intricately carved based on a multi-moulding plinth in which the base has a row of elephants, or the gajathara (elephant band). The lower shaft of the pillar has three sets of sculptures, and the topmost part of the shaft has two brackets. The torana must have been attached to the bracket remains on the pillar.

- Description:
- View of the subsidiary shrine from the panchayatana (main shrine with four subsidiary shrines in all four directions) setup of the Someshwar Mahadev Temple. Not all these shrines have survived, except for the shrines to the northwest and southeast of the main temple. This is the shrine to the northwest of the main temple. The four side shrines in the complex are single shrines dedicated to different deities, probably Vishnu, Ganesha, goddess, and Surya. Of the shikhara on these shrines, only a few aedicules of the base have survived.
