Roadside welcome on a city street beside a silver minivan with its side door open. A smiling woman in an orange-saffron head wrap and orange garment, with a rudraksha-style necklace, leans from the van doorway. Several devotees in white clothes stand around her: a woman in white with a gold-bordered sari holds a plate of flower offerings and a garland, another woman in white holds a steel plate, and men in white shirts and rudraksha malas stand nearby. A cream bus with a blue stripe and a white van labelled Hotel Kirthikaa Palace are parked behind. Trees and a roadside hoarding with a portrait fill the background.
