Three women in orange saris with red and green borders sit cross-legged at a puja platform before large decorated deity figures garlanded with yellow marigolds and purple flowers. The woman in the centre holds a pink lotus, and the others hold flowers or offerings. Brass oil lamps, a kalasha-like brass vessel and a brass bowl with flower petals sit on the platform. A man in white kurta stands behind them, and a partly visible man in white is at the right edge, seemingly performing the ritual. A banner behind shows Kannada script in orange and white. The scene looks like a homa or puja ceremony.
