A seated man with long dark hair, wearing a rust-orange wrap, a leopard-print cloth at the waist and a long beaded rudraksha-style mala across his chest, smiles with eyes closed and arms extended toward a man in a white kurta and white dhoti standing at right, who raises one hand in an open gesture. Behind them are white floor-standing air coolers, a red curtain and a window. The seated figure, in what appears to be a satsang setting, is a person by appearance cues, with the rudraksha mala and long hair. Foreground shows the back of another seated person's head and a tray of colourful offerings at lower edge.
