In the foreground a man with long dark hair tied back, bare-shouldered and wearing a rust-red cloth and a dark beaded rudraksha-style necklace, extends both hands to pass a handful of yellow-white food from a silver tray.

A second woman in white and several people in white dhotis stand and sit at the back beside steel pots, a red sofa and a blue backdrop. Golden throne-like armrest visible at left.
