In the centre, a bald man in a saffron-orange robe carries a copper-coloured vessel held in both hands while walking forward.

To the right, two men in maroon and gold-bordered dhotis stand with bare upper bodies, one wearing a gold necklace and a red mark, the other with bangles on his arms; one of them raises a hand to his face. A young man in a striped shirt and jeans stands behind them. Brass oil lamps, a tall brass ritual staff, and a flower arrangement sit on the left, and people are visible in the background.
