The doorway of the garbhagriha consists of five panchashakha (jambs) of the Harshnath Temple. Pairs of dvarapala (door guardian) and river goddesses (Ganga-Yamuna) occupy their standard positions at the bottom of the jamb. Mithuna figures are carved on either side in their typical positions. In the foreground are elaborately carved pillars with purna-ghatas, which, according to Art historian Ambika Dhaka, maybe a later replacement.
