Facing him, a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes with a gold-bead necklace and a red tilak smiles and holds a folded paper, while a shaven-headed attendant in orange robes holds a silver tray with a gold-handled vessel. Men in white dhotis and orange or red shawls stand around, and a gold palanquin-like throne stands in the background.

Next to them, a man in an orange robe holds a silver tray with small brass lamps and offerings. On the left, men in white clothes and rudraksha malas stand with palms pressed together in anjali.
