Photograph of a small indoor puja on a white cloth spread on the floor. A man in white ritual clothes with a rudraksha mala sits at the lower right, pouring liquid from a small vessel over brass puja items, including a brass plate, cups, lamps and a tray of flower petals. Around him sit four women and a boy: a woman in an orange and yellow sari with glasses, a woman in a white sari with rudraksha beads reading from a paper, a woman in a green blouse and gold sari, and a younger woman in white with beads. The boy wears a blue checked shirt and glasses. A flower rangoli with a yellow centre lies on the cloth, and a white tablecloth covers the wall-side table behind them.
