A woman in a maroon and gold sari, seen from behind, leans forward and presses her palm to the forehead of a man in a white shirt with eyes closed, as in a blessing. He wears an orange-and-maroon patterned shawl and a lanyard, and raises his other hand palm-out. A woman in a maroon top with a beaded necklace sits behind him, and a man in white stands at the left. A large screen behind shows a figure in red and white. Gold ornate decor and a small framed image are visible at left.
