Photograph of a stage-side moment in a hall with dark red curtains and a clear lectern behind. A man in rust-red robes with a gold-bordered dhoti and layered red coral beads with gold beads around his neck reaches out to take a white envelope or card held out by a shaved-headed monk in orange robes and a dark rudraksha mala. The monk also holds folded orange cloth. A red-robed attendant carries a red tray at right, and on the left, people in white clothing with hands raised in anjali stand behind a metal stanchion and chain.
