Several hold food offerings in their cupped hands, and those in front wear rudraksha malas and white urdhva pundra tilak on their foreheads. Behind them, others in orange dress stand near tables of prepared offerings, and in the background a person in white clothing stands near a raised platform. The scene appears to be a ritual food offering or prasadam distribution. No person is clearly identifiable as a person from the visible appearance.2013-07-10 +1 copies
