Indoor ritual scene in a dark-walled hall with brass bells and oil lamps hanging above. A man on a gold lion-armrested throne with a leopard-print cushion wears a red-orange turban, a pink-and-white flower garland and a red cloth over his shoulder; he holds a silver staff. Before him, four women and a young saffron-clad man sit at a low table with silver trays of flowers, fruit and offerings, one woman with a white-and-gold sari and tilak, another in a red shawl and rudraksha mala. A video camera on a tripod and a standing fan are visible at left.
