A photograph of a row of girls and young women seated on the floor in a line, several with palms pressed together in namaskar or offering gestures. A girl in front wears a pale pink top, another in the centre has a white and turquoise patterned kurta, and others wear orange, brown and teal outfits. Small brass pooja vessels, a brass plate with yellow flowers or turmeric, and brass lamps sit on a red cloth in front of them. A small child stands behind on the left, and more people are blurred in the background. The setting appears to be a devotional gathering.

Several girls in front with palms pressed together in anjali mudra, wearing orange, brown, yellow, white and blue clothing; one girl in a yellow top and brown pants holds her hands together while a girl in a blue-and-white striped top holds small flowers. Brass plates with flowers, brass lamps, a kalasha-style vessel and a bowl of water with flower petals sit on orange and pink cloths on the floor before them.
