A pair of silver padukas, or sacred sandals, rests on a round brass tray with a red velvet-covered gold-embossed base behind it. The padukas are garlanded with yellow marigolds, green-centred flowers, white jasmine and a few pink petals, and the tray sits on a small ornate brass stand on a marble floor. A timestamp overlay reads 18-May-2022 12:50:00 pm, Tripura Bhairwi Road, Bangali Tola, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. No people are visible, and this shows a padapuja-style offering of flowers to the padukas.
