Facing him, a bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a red-and-gold border and a gold chain stretches his hands forward to receive a silver plate of offerings, including white sweets and red petals. Behind them a second man in a white dhoti and gold-bordered shawl holds a plate, and a metal cabinet, folding chairs and stacked white cups fill the background. Two physical people are visible.
