- La description:
- Narasimha is carved on the external wall of the mandapa (pillared hall), though time has weathered its intricate details. This depiction portrays the fourth incarnation of Vishnu, showcasing his formidable aspect with a lion’s visage atop a human form. Despite the erosion of many arms, Narasimha’s attributes are intact. In his upper hands, he holds a chakra (discus) and a shankha (conch shell), symbols of cosmic order and divine sound. His frontal hands are depicted in the act of subduing an asura (demon), although the figure is heavily damaged. He is adorned with jewels and a long garland. Additionally, a figure resembling Varaha is carved at the bottom left.

- La description:
- On the kakshasana (seat backs), the depiction of Vamana, an avatar of Vishnu, stands prominently. Vamana is portrayed with four arms, although two are damaged. In his upper right hand, he holds a pustaka (book). This attribute holds significant symbolism, as Vishnu in his Vamana avatar assumes the form of a Brahmin, embodying the essence of divine wisdom contained within the Vedas.

- La description:
- Chamunda stands atop a human form, flanked by two attendants and an animal companion. Though many of her arms are fragmented, her divine attributes are evident. In her upper hands, she carries a sarpa (snake). Her intact right arms carry a damru (drum) and a trishula (trident), while her left hands cradle a khatvanga (staff with a human skull) and a bowl, with the finger of her left hand touching her lips. Chamunda’s portrayal emphasizes her skeletal form, with a cavity in her belly housing a scorpion, symbolizing transformative power. Her lower body is draped modestly with a loin cloth. Adjacent to her, a seated figure grasps a bowl from which he is drinking. It is speculated that one of the Goddess’s broken hands may have held a munda (severed human head). The presence of the seated figure suggests the consumption of the blood dripping from the severed head.
