Vishnu is positioned at the far left end of the uttaranga (entablature) above the lintel of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). He is depicted holding a gada (mace), a shankha (conch shell), and a chakra (discus). One of his lower hands is gesturing the varadahasta (boon-giving gesture). He is adorned with a kiritamukuta (a cylindrical crown associated with Vaishnava iconography) and various pieces of jewellery.
