A long-haired man in an orange-saffron robe with a dark rudraksha mala and red tilak stands on a red carpet under a corrugated metal roof, placing his hand on the head of a man in white clothes who presses his palms together in greeting. Beside him, another man in orange with a red-bordered shawl holds a white cloth-wrapped object and papers, and devotees in white dhotis and a shaved-headed attendant in white stand along metal railings. The setting looks like a hall with a red mat and striped floor covering, and a few bystanders are partly visible at the edges.
