A man in a white shirt and white dhoti-style trousers lifts a red and white flower garland toward a smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair who wears a saffron-orange wrap over his shoulders and a saffron top. A woman in a gold and green sari stands beside them, holding a brass pot with green leaves and white flower garlands. Another person in orange robes is partly visible at the right edge, and a woman in green stands at the far left. Cars are parked in the background.
