A bare-chested older man with white hair and a white dhoti-style cloth sits in a crowded hall, pressing a grey granite stone to his lips with both hands. He wears a red and brown rudraksha mala. Beside him a seated man with a shaved head and white vertical tilak marks, wearing a white garment and a gold ring, raises one finger.

Behind him, several other bare-chested men wearing white dhotis and rudraksha malas sit or stand, and a man at the right in an orange garment holds a silver tray.

He wears a white cloth wrap over bare shoulders, an orange-red shawl, and a long rudraksha mala around his neck. Behind him, a bald man in a white shirt raises his arm, and a dark-haired person is at the right edge, with a blurred woman in the foreground. The setting is an indoor hall with a colourful striped mat. The seated man's clothing and rudraksha are visible cues, but his appearance does not clearly establish a person, so this is unsure.2017-03-17 +1 copiesA close photo of a shaved-headed, bearded man with his eyes lowered and a faint smile, bare-shouldered and wearing brown rudraksha mala necklaces and a gold arm band over white cloth.
