Behind them, an older man in white with a saffron shawl and tilak performs ritual service beside a metal tripod stand. The backdrop is a large projected image of red temple pillars and carved architecture, and a trident stands at left.

Seated beside him are figures in saffron and yellow robes and white garments, and a small table holds a cup and microphone. In the foreground, several people with dark hair are seen from behind.
