Night event under a corrugated roof with string lights and a bright lamp. A central standing man in a rust-orange robe with bare feet and folded palms, eyes closed, wears a pink and white flower garland and a gold necklace, with a red tilak on his forehead. Two orange-robed men sit at right and a woman in white with a brass plate of offerings sits at left; other devotees, some in white and some in orange, sit on a striped rug. A copper-coloured post stands behind. The man's distinctive long hair and ornate garland match a person candidate, but this is an appearance-based label.
