The woman on the right wears a cream and gold-bordered Kerala-style saree, a white forehead mark and rudraksha mala, and joins her palms in prayer while gazing upward. The woman on the left wears an orange-red sari with layered beaded necklaces, hands folded in her lap. Behind them, a standing woman in red and white attire and a golden deity murti stand in a shrine with red drapes. This appears to be a devotional puja scene.
