Four men stand side by side in a bright, plainly furnished room with cream walls and a pale tiled floor, all barefoot. Each wears white dhoti with gold borders and bare upper body, with white sacred ash marks on the forehead and rudraksha malas. On the left, a large cardboard cutout of a smiling figure in a red and gold crown and red-and-orange shawl is draped with red, yellow and green flower garlands; he stands next to a bearded man in a rudraksha mala. Two men hold small deity murti with flower garlands: one holds a dark metal figure with purple and yellow flowers, the other holds a green-shawled figure in pink and white flowers. A third man holds a red cloth tray with a gold ornament and flower garland. Four physical people are visible, and the scene shows a ritual presentation of murtis and offerings.
