The blessing appears to take place at an indoor event. Behind them, a person in an orange robe with a red shawl wears a rudraksha mala with a pendant, and another man in a red shirt stands at the right edge. A small light-blue card is held in the lower left foreground. A third person in orange and white is seen at the left edge. The long-haired figure has long, curly, swept-back hair and wears no crown or turban; the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm the a person identity, so the a person field is unsure.
