All the figures on the door are painted in bright colours. There is a bell which hangs in the middle of the door.

Main Shrine - The main temple consists of a hall. The inside walls of this hall are plain . On the outside, there is a large lotus flower carved on each of the side walls. The roof of the sanctum is hemispherical on the front half of the hall. In the second half, just above the idol, there is tower or the shikhara of the temple. This has discs, a kalash and a flag at the top. 

Other Shrines - Adjoining the Devi Padmavati temple are two smaller temples. One of them is dedicated to Lord Shiva, who is worshipped here in the form of a Shivalinga. There is a statue of Nandi bull outside this temple which directly faces the Shivalinga. In front of the Nandi is a figure of a tortoise. Both Nandi and the tortoise figures are considered sacred.  The other small temple is dedicated to Lord Ganesha and has a marble statue of the God.

In front of the two smaller temples is a paved and covered area which is used for special functions.

The temple lies on the west bank of Powai lake. It is said that on two days in a year when the doors of the temple open, the early morning rays of the sun beam down on the feet of the statue of the Goddess. There is a fence between the temple and the lake to avoid water pollution. There are special bins in the temple to dispose the temple waste and no one is allowed to throw or immerse anything in the waters of the lake.
