A group of women in rust-orange and saffron saris stands close together under a white tent canopy, several handing food and offerings to one another. The foreground woman on the left wears orange with a dark bun; in the centre a woman in rust and gold holds a small handful of yellow food while another woman takes it from her palm; on the right a smiling woman in deep orange with rudraksha malas and glasses lifts food toward her mouth. Golden and red bunting and a gold-framed structure appear behind them. No readable printed text is visible, and no a person candidate is clearly present.
