In the right foreground a standing man with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala wears a brown-maroon shawl and a gold ceremonial necklace, looking toward a decorated stage on the left. The stage has a red cloth draped over a raised seat, garlands of purple and white flowers, and a row of small painted deity figures and a Ganesha murti.
