The centre man wears a rust-brown dhoti and shawl with a heavy gold necklace and multiple flower garlands, smiling and raising one hand in a wave. The man on the right wears a cream embroidered kurta and white dhoti with a red-and-yellow flower garland, and the woman on the left wears a blue and gold silk sari with a red-and-yellow garland and gold jewellery. Steel plates on the floor hold fruit, flowers, grapes, dry fruit and coconut. Scattered grains and petals lie around them, and the scene has a ceremonial feel.
