A seated man in orange and red ochre robes wears a red flower garland and a white forehead mark, facing a kneeling man in a white shirt and white trousers who holds up offerings of fruit. Between them sits a wooden tray with oranges, a yellow fruit, red chilies, and a small red-brown cloth. Around them are potted green plants, rocks, and a grass mat, with a small golden deity murti at the upper right. Behind them, a standing man in a white shirt holds a camera on a tripod, and other men in white shirts and saffron robes stand in the background near a white wall and an air conditioner. The seated man is an appearance-based a person candidate with a long swept-back hair, red floral garland and ochre robes, but the appearance is not sufficiently distinctive for certainty, so the role is given as seated devotee-facing figure and the identity is marked unsure.
