A photograph inside a small room with orange walls, a computer desk, a glass cabinet and a wall calendar. A man in a maroon dhoti and shawl, with a rudraksha mala and bead bracelets, stands at centre while several devotees kneel on the floor before him, one with white flower garlands on her head. A young man in an orange robe on the right holds a cardboard box of fruit, and a small brass lamp and offering sit on a red cloth on the floor. A framed deity picture hangs on the wall, and an orange towel is visible at the left edge. The scene appears to be a padapuja at a devotee's house.
