A photograph in a hall with a pink draped backdrop and marigold garlands. A figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron robe, stands at centre-right with hands extended, receiving a white paper bag from a white-haired man in a white shirt and white dhoti who bows forward. Behind them, another person in orange stands with a silver plate, and a man in a checked shirt stands at left. A large ornate gold throne with cushions stands at right, and a red-and-white decorative cushion sits on it. The figure in orange has long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, a probable match for a person. Scattered flower petals lie on the floor.
