Indoor photo of a devotee blessing scene in a room with white walls and a yellow cloth-covered table. A figure in an orange saffron robe with an orange head wrap, seated on the left, places a hand on the head of a kneeling woman in a white sari with a red border. Around them, men in white shirts with orange headbands and saffron scarves, a man in a light blue checked shirt with folded hands, a man in a grey jacket, and a woman in a white sari stand and watch. A video camera is visible at the left edge and a fan at the left. A bouquet of flowers lies on the table. The figure's appearance matches the page's a person reference only loosely, so the identity is uncertain and he is described by role.
