Indoor photo in a pale pink temple hall with gold-trimmed pillars and a gents toilet sign on the wall. A central figure wears a tall cream turban, a long swept-back hairstyle, an orange-gold shawl, a dense multi-strand garland of rudraksha beads, and gold armbands; he smiles while reaching toward a wooden tray of red fruit and rudraksha malas. Two men in orange robes with rudraksha malas stand beside him holding the tray, and a bald man in orange with glasses assists. Around them devotees in white and light shirts stand and one kneels in front, many with hands folded in greeting. A crowd of visible onlookers fills the foreground.

A photograph inside a temple-like room with a gold-painted pillar at left and a gents toilet sign at upper right. A man in a cream turban, bare-chested with a cream shawl and a long ornate gold-and-beige necklace, reaches into a wooden tray of red fruits.
