A person in an orange-saffron garment with a white forehead mark steps out of a black SUV, one hand raised in greeting toward a priest. The priest, standing on a paved courtyard, wears a white dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a white tilak on the forehead, and a wristwatch. He holds a brass plate with a decorated pot topped by green leaves and a golden coconut, as an offering or kalasha welcome. A red brick wall and green grass form the background. The car door has a dotted black pattern.

Beside him a bald man with white forehead bands and a red tilak wears a saffron-orange robe and a rudraksha mala, with a red shawl draped over his shoulders.
