This vahanam is different than the Pedasesha Vahanam. Notice that this vahanam has Sesha represented by 5 heads whereas the Sesha in the other vahanam has 7 heads. Also, the lord is without his consorts in this vahanam, different than the other vahanam.

The lord is taken out on the chinnasesha vahanam on the morning of the second day of Brahmotsavam. The lord takes the appearance as Mohini.
