Night-time photo at an outdoor darshan event. A figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange turban and sleeveless orange robe with a rudraksha mala, faces a woman in a pink and orange sari with red rudraksha beads and glasses, who gestures while holding a small plastic packet. An elderly woman with glasses is at the left edge, and men in white and checked shirts stand behind, with orange-draped attendants and orange banners in the background under floodlights.
