Indoor ceremony on a red-carpeted stage with red drapes and a golden throne-like seat. A seated man with long dark hair, dark red garments, a large rudraksha-style bead necklace and a trident-topped staff is raised on a golden throne with a red cushion, with a small offering tray before him. To the left, a line of shaved-headed men in white dhotis and shawls stands holding papers, and a woman in white sits near the throne. On the right, women in white blouses and red shawls stand holding papers near a gold pillar, while a seated woman in a green sari sits on the platform. Gold-accented pillars and a cooler stand frame the scene.
