A photograph of a ceremonial offering in a hall with red curtains and framed photos on the walls. A seated person in an orange shawl with head bowed receives an offering from a standing man in maroon-and-gold robes and a rudraksha mala, who holds a cellophane-wrapped basket of bananas tied with a pink bow. Behind him another man in maroon robes holds a silver tray. Other robed men with malas stand along the left, and a seated man in a white shirt watches at the right. Pillars with red velvet ropes frame the scene. Five to six people are visible.2015-01-03A photograph inside a hall with red curtains and framed event photos on the walls.

Two men in saffron-orange robes stand at a wooden table: the man on the left, wearing a marigold garland and an orange shawl with gold border over a maroon-and-gold dhoti, smiles while receiving a woven basket of bananas and fruit from a man in an orange turban, orange shawl and orange garment. Behind them, a bare-chested man with a white forehead mark and rudraksha mala holds a fruit basket, and another shaved-headed attendant in maroon dhoti stands further back.

On the left, a bare-chested man in rust-brown dhoti and sash, wearing a long rudraksha mala, a white vertical tilak on his forehead and a gold earring, leans forward and smiles while receiving a basket of apples and oranges. Facing him, a man in an orange turban, orange shawl and glasses holds the fruit basket out with both hands. A third figure in orange garments stands behind, partly visible. Whether the figure on the left matches a person cannot be confirmed from appearance, so the role is described as a person receiving fruit offerings.2013-02-08October 19 20132013-10-19
