A photograph taken indoors on a stage with red curtains and a red-carpeted platform. An older woman in an orange shawl over white clothes reaches out and touches the forehead of a young girl in a white kurta with an orange-and-red mala around her neck; a blue mark is on her cheek. Behind them, two older women in white saris with rudraksha malas hold up white and gold folded cloth, and a pile of gold fabric lies in the foreground. On the stage backdrop is a large printed portrait and a golden throne-like seat, with a small figure seated in white near the left edge. Several people in white clothing sit or move at the back of the stage.
