Beside him a man in a plain white kurta kneels with head bowed and hands folded, while yellow and orange petals scatter across the floor.

Behind them, several people in white garments hold steel bowls of flower petals, and a woman in a white sari with a red-and-gold border stands among them. White and yellow flower petals cover the cloth-draped seat, with pink flowers and a bouquet in the upper left. The scene appears to be a blessing or darshan moment. The seated figure has a compatible presentation (saffron turban and robe, garland, rudraksha pendant), so an appearance-based candidate is present, but the cues are not fully distinctive, so the match is uncertain. +1 copies
