A Diwali puja in a small shrine room with yellow and pink walls strung with marigold garlands. Three deity murtis stand on a raised altar draped with gold and green cloth, the central figure garlanded in white and red flowers. In the foreground, a woman in a red blouse and yellow-gold silk saree sits cross-legged beside brass lamps, a bowl of red petals and a plate of fruit. On the right, a man in a white kurta and dark trousers, with a rudraksha mala around his neck, sits barefoot before a laptop on a red cloth. A brass kalasha-like vessel and lit oil lamps occupy the centre; this appears to be a Lakshmi puja. Two people are visible.
