A photograph of a room with a wood-laminate floor and drop ceiling. A standing figure in a white and gold-bordered dhoti or veshti with a red sash faces a row of about a dozen seated people on chairs, including an older man in a checked shirt, several men in casual sweatshirts and shirts, women in a pink top, a dark Adidas hoodie and a purple sweater. A ritual table with a maroon cloth and metal vessels stands at the right. The standing figure's appearance is ambiguous and no clear a person cues are visible, so no identification is made.
