A photograph inside a cream-marbled living room with arched doorways, gilt-topped columns and pale curtains. In the lower right, a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes and a white flower garland sits on the floor smiling, with a cushion beside him, and a woman in white with a yellow shawl kneels beside him holding a red tray of fruit and sweets. Standing behind them in a line are men in white dhotis and shirts, a woman in a white sari and an orange shawl, and a man in a dark shirt and trousers, with a cameraman filming at the centre. On the left, a woman in a red and blue kurta with a green dupatta stands with her hands joined.
