- La description:
- One of the most beautiful and eye-catching sculptures of this temple is situated on the southern wall of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) in the bhadra (central offset). It depicts Shiva in the form of Andhakasurvadha, holding various attributes in his multiple arms. He is carrying a broken weapon which could be a trishula (trident) and is depicted holding the head and skin of a gajasura (a demon in disguise of an elephant). There are three small figures at the bottom of the panel out of which one is Chamunda, on his left, shown drinking from the bowl.

- La description:
- The lalatbimba (lintel) of the doorframe is relatively plain, featuring three large panels placed at the centre and two on the extreme ends depicting the trinity—Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma. In the central panel, an ethereal sculpture of Shiva in the form of Nataraja is carved. To the proper left, a sculpture of Vishnu is carved, while to the proper right, a sculpture of Brahma is represented. Nataraja had multiple arms, now all broken, with an elegant posture and glorious face drawing attention. He is accompanied by two musicians who are playing musical instruments. The charming figure of Vishnu is shown holding shankha (conch), gada (mace) and chakra (discuss). The three-faced Brahma is also carved with four arms, now broken, with his vahana (vehicle or mount) at the bottom.

- One of the most interesting sculptures is of a dhvaja vahaka (flag bearer), placed at the shikhara (superstructure) of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). The bearded male figure is shown standing, facing the shikhara, with one leg placed on the floor and the other placed on a lotus pedestal. He is wearing a crown and is heavily adorned with jewels. He is carrying a sword which can be seen hanging from his waist. His hands are shown one above the other, holding a hollow circular disk, which must have been used to hold the dhvaja (flag) of the temple.
