A street crowd gathers outside a blue and orange commercial building with a sign reading Bajaj Force on its facade. In the foreground, a man with long swept-back dark hair wears a red and white kurta-style garment, a red and white garland of flowers around his neck, and a bindi, smiling toward the crowd; he appears to be the honoured guest, and a person identification is not clearly supported by the visible cues. Around him, many men in white shirts and dhotis and women in saris, including one in a yellow sari with folded hands, press forward. A yellow auto-rickshaw and parked motorbikes line the dusty road under palm trees.
