Five people stand together on a golden-ornate stage with a multicolored rangoli at their feet. In the centre, a man with a bare chest wears a saffron-red dhoti and a red shawl draped over his shoulders, with his hands folded before him. On his left, a woman wears a pink and red saree and an older man wears a white shirt and white dhoti. On his right, a younger person wears a teal and grey patterned kurta with teal trousers, and a woman wears a white saree with a dark border. Flanking the group are two golden lion statues, gilded carved pillars topped with bird figures, round teal decorative medallions, and a red-petalled floor with lotus flowers at the front. Visible cues for the centre figure are limited to the red shawl and bare-chested attire, so identity remains uncertain.
