A man in orange robes with a fresh green garland around his neck stands in the doorway smiling and gesturing with one hand.

In front, several men in white shirts and white dhotis face the doorway, one holding a small glass. On the right, a shaved-headed man in orange with a gold-beaded necklace looks down. On the left, a cameraman in a red shirt films with a professional video camera on a stand. Several other people are partially visible, roughly six to twenty in total.
