Night-time outdoor event at a festival site lit by string lights, with yellow and orange flags on poles behind. A bearded man with long dark hair in an orange saffron robe and a white flower garland stands with palms pressed together in greeting at the centre. To his left, a man in an orange robe with a rudraksha-style beaded necklace walks beside him, and to the right stands a man in a yellow robe with a red forehead mark. Several men in white kurtas and dark shirts surround them, with a green-lit tree in the background. Appearance cues for the central figure are modest, so identity is uncertain.
