Photograph of a indoor ceremony on a red-carpeted stage before a large backdrop painting of a four-armed deity murti seated in a lotus pose with a temple gopuram behind it. Several men in white dhotis with gold-bordered shawls and a bald man in white stand at left, while a line of women in white and gold-bordered saris stand at right. A man in white kneels at the center in front of a small table with offerings, and a young child in white stands nearby. A small white bull figure and a potted tree frame the scene. Stage lights hang from the ceiling above. No a person candidate is clearly visible, so this is a ritual scene with devotees and priests.
