An elderly man in a cream-coloured suit and tinted sunglasses stands centre-left, wearing a long garland of white flowers with red and green accents, while his hands touch the garland. Facing him is a person in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban, with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, leaning in close. Around them stand uniformed police officers in khaki and peaked caps, men in casual shirts, and photographers with cameras. A silver car is at left and a camera lens at lower right. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the saffron turban, long swept-back hair and rudraksha mala worn by the orange-robed figure, who is shown greeting the garlanded guest.
