A bare-chested young man with long dark hair, wearing an orange cloth wrap, clasps hands with an older bearded man in an orange robe and large yellow flower garlands and a rudraksha mala, who is smiling. Behind them a white car is parked. On the left a man in a white dhoti and orange shawl holds an umbrella pole. On the right a man in orange shawl stands beside a silver tray with a green leaf and a small pot. Exactly five physical people are visible in the scene.

In the foreground, a long-haired, bare-chested young man in orange cloth faces away from the camera and reaches toward a silver kalasha-style vessel topped with green leaves and a yellow marigold-like garland.
