A photograph inside a pink-walled hall with a wooden door and framed pictures on the wall. A bare-chested man in a white dhoti with a gold-coloured border stands at centre, wearing a multi-strand flower garland and a gold pendant, holding a white pot with green leaves and flowers while he pours or offers from it. Around him men in white dhotis and shirts sit on the floor with hands folded in namaskar, some wearing red shawls or white headbands with vibhuti marks. Standing figures in white flank the scene, and one man in a white shirt and yellow cloth stands at the right edge, appearing to assist in a ritual such as an abhishekam or puja.
