A priest in a bare-chested state with a white dhoti bordered in gold, wearing a rudraksha mala and glasses, holds a brass tray with a copper cup, small bowls and offerings while a young boy in a brown long-sleeved top stands before him with cupped hands, receiving prasad from a small spoon. Behind them stand several decorated deity murtis in colourful silk garments, one in blue and gold, another in pink, with a dark-skinned murti in blue and gold on the right. A red and orange marigold garland hangs over an orange cloth-covered table with brass plates, and gold-framed arch decor lines the wall. Setting is a temple shrine room with black and gold tiles.
