Behind them, a woman in a purple blouse, a girl and another woman in pink look on, and a young girl in a red top with braided hair presses her palms together in anjali. A red-cushioned seat and a small painted deity figure with a red crown stand at left.

The man wears gold bangles and has a long swept-back hair. Behind him, a woman in an orange sari with a yellow border stands, and several women in saris and children sit in the background of a bright room with an air conditioner and red curtain. An orange cloth lies on the chair arm.
