A figure seated on a large reddish-orange upholstered chair wears orange-saffron robes, a long garland of white flowers with blue, green and red ribbon, bangles, and holds a silver trishul trident aloft in one hand while the other is raised in greeting. Seated on the floor before him, a young man in white dhoti with rudraksha mala and a shaved head tends a brass oil lamp, and a woman in white sari with gold border offers flowers and a brass vessel. Devotees in white and saffron, a woman in purple sari, a girl in red and gold, and a boy in white shirt kneel or stand with hands folded in anjali. A man in a checked shirt and a cameraman in orange clothing stand at the back. Flower petals and a brass tray lie on the floor.
