Nearby, young saffron-clad attendants stand and kneel, one with a shaved head and white markings. Before him a white-clad man with folded hands and a woman in a white sari with a pink border kneel with raised palms. A metal tray with flower petals, fruit and offerings sits on the floor, and a garland-decorated wall, a white air conditioner and glass display cabinet appear behind. Several seated onlookers, including a girl in orange, watch from the right.

Behind them a younger monk in orange robes bows his head and holds a stack of white papers.
