A photograph inside a home interior during a padapuja house visit. A figure with long hair swept back, wearing a rust-orange dhoti and shawl, rich gold-coloured bangles and armlet, and a white-and-red garland, sits on a raised seat holding a silver staff and touching it with one hand. Seated on the floor in front are two young boys in saffron-orange robes and a man in white with a grey-streaked beard, a boy in white, and a woman in a dark red sari with gold border, all holding flowers and leaves. Behind them stands a woman in a brown sari and a man in an orange shawl holding a camera. Wooden carved deity murtis, a hanging brass bell and a shelf are visible on the right. Rose petals and a marigold-and-white garland decorate the seat. The figure in the seat is.
