A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a wide patterned headband performs a fire ritual on the floor in front of a small flame and smoking offering pile. He wears layered rudraksha malas, beaded bracelets and a gold pendant, and leans forward over the fire with his head bowed. Behind him stand carved wooden screens, and a brass plate with a small cup and a silver-toned deity murti sit at the right edge beside an offering vessel. A microphone on an arm is positioned near his face. The scene appears to show a homa-style fire offering.
