Four shaven-headed men in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls stand in a hall preparing offerings, holding golden-yellow grains in their cupped hands. Several wear long rudraksha malas and white horizontal tilak stripes on forehead and upper arms. Behind them, others in orange and red garments move through a decorated room with orange and pink drapes and a red curtain. Ritual preparation. Whether any figure is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance, so no identification is made.
