A photograph of several men crowded together indoors, with a bright red and white interior and framed pictures and red drapes behind them. On the right edge, a person with a red bindi on the forehead, a red-pink flower garland and ornate gold-toned ceremonial jewellery extends an open right hand toward the crowd, smiling. Several men in shirts, one in a blue-and-white checked shirt, one in a white shirt, one in a blue t-shirt, stand close, some with moustaches, one with a red thread on the wrist. Appearance-based identification of the person on the right is uncertain, so the a person field is unsure.
