A festoon-decorated canopy of banana stalks, leaves and red-and-pink cloth shades the way. Foreground, a bald man in saffron cloth with a rudraksha mala walks at the front; a man in white with a vibhuti tripundra and an orange shawl walks in front of him. Behind them, a woman in a white sari with a red border and a garland of white flowers smiles while carrying a decorated pot; another woman in a red blouse and orange sari holds a brass plate with flowers. Several men in white shirts and saffron-clad sannyasis follow, along with children and onlookers. Pedestrians pack the lane behind them.2014-07-04 +1 copiesNovember 23 20162016-11-23June 26 20142014-06-26Outdoor temple courtyard scene beside a stone wall and a pink-painted boundary wall with palm trees behind.
