Indoor scene in a tiled room with a staircase at left. A smiling person in an orange saffron robe sits on a wooden chair beside a long wooden dining table holding steel buckets and a water bottle. In front of them, a man in a white shirt and a woman in a yellow-green sari kneel on the floor, bowing toward the seated figure. Another person in orange stands at left, and a person in white stands in the background near a doorway. Steel vessels sit on the floor near the stairs. The seated figure's appearance is ambiguous given the image resolution, so identity is not asserted.

Indoor photograph in a home dining area with a terrazzo floor and a staircase with white railings behind. A smiling man with short dark hair sits on a wooden chair at a long wooden dining table, wearing a loose orange-saffron wrap over his shoulders and torso. Two people in white and light green kneel on the floor in front of him, bowing low. On the left, a figure in orange robes stands with back partly turned. Behind, a man in white shirt and dhoti holds a silver plate, and steel pots and water bottles sit on the table. The seated man shows a person cues: saffron wrap and a seated, honoured position, though his face and hair are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.2008-04-06April 06 20082008-04-06Indoor dining scene in a building with a staircase and white railings behind. A person in saffron-orange robes sits at a wooden table in the foreground, smiling and gesturing with one hand, with a metal bucket and steel containers on the table and a water bottle at the edge. Another woman in an orange-and-white sari stands behind them, and a man in a white shirt and glasses serves food from a steel vessel.
