A shirtless priest in an orange dhoti with a red border pours liquid from a golden kalasha pot over a bronze deity murti. The murti is a standing figure draped with a pink and purple flower garland, and the liquid splashes in the air. A black stone structure and metal railings stand behind, with a blurred crowd in the background. Rudraksha beads hang around the priest's neck and wrists, and white sacred ash marks his upper arms.
