A group of men in white shirts and white dhotis stand close together, most wearing rudraksha malas, as they reach toward a shallow metal tray held by a bald, older man in white dhoti and shirt with a beaded mala at the centre. Several hands extend over the tray, which appears to be offered or presented. Behind them is a deep red curtain. A man on the right wears a white shirt with a lanyard and a short-sleeved shirt-wearer on the left wears a blue-and-white striped polo. Two people are visible on the edges.
