A man in an orange saffron garment with an orange head covering and a white garland sits on an ornate gold-and-brown throne-like chair, gesturing with raised hands toward the audience.

A man with short dark hair wearing an orange robe and a white garland sits centrally on a white-draped sofa, gesturing with one hand as he speaks. Beside him a younger man in an orange robe sits, and a woman in a red sari with gold bangles sits to the right, listening with her arms folded. A man in a white shirt and beige trousers sits at far right, and blurred heads of people in the foreground frame the scene. Behind, strings of orange and white flower garlands hang from a wall. In front, red rose petals cover the floor around a brass kalasha-style vessel with a white flower garland, bowls of fruit, oranges and bananas, and a brass plate.
