A seated man in a rust-brown robe is being honoured with a large garland of white jasmine and red roses that drapes over his shoulders and chest. A man in a white dhoti and shirt stands behind him pouring liquid from a metal vessel over his head. On the right, two women in white and gold saris stand smiling and clapping with hands raised. Behind them is an orange and red draped backdrop, white curtains, a standing fan and a framed picture on a side table. Scattered petals cover the floor. The seated man's features are not clearly visible enough to confirm identity from appearance; he is shown with a bearded face and his head is lowered in the ritual pouring.
