A man in saffron-orange turban and ornate saffron robes stands at right, wearing a heavy gold necklace with rudraksha beads and gold armbands, holding a white book and speaking to a group of women. Several women with folded hands and pressed palms surround him in a bright pink-walled hall; the woman in the centre wears a green patterned sari with gold earrings and a nose stud. Behind them shelves hold figurines and framed portraits in saffron tones. A fully visible man in saffron robes and a rudraksha mala is a probable match for a person, going by these cues, though identity is uncertain.
