Two bare-chested men in white dhotis perform a ritual abhishekam at a shrine. The man on the right pours liquid from a brass vessel onto a small brass murti of a deity standing on a wooden stand at the right. The man on the left, wearing a face mask and a rudraksha-style mala, stands beside him with hands together. Before them on an orange cloth are brass plates and bowls holding bananas, oranges, limes, pink flower petals and a brass lamp. Behind them, standing statues of deities in bright saffron, gold and pink garments stand against a golden-framed arch and a beige wall.
