The man in the centre wears a saffron-orange robe, an orange head wrap and a rudraksha mala, with long dark hair, and appears to be a sannyasi; the identity is uncertain from appearance alone. The man on the left wears a light blue shirt and dark trousers, and the man on the right wears a cream sweater and beige trousers with a mala around his neck.

The central figure wears an orange turban, an orange robe and white shoes, and smiles broadly with hands clasped.
