A photograph of a group of young men in white dhotis and shawls with maroon borders, most with shaved heads and rudraksha malas, gathered on a dirt courtyard in front of a red-washed building with a corrugated roof. One man in the centre raises a hand holding a colourful ball, while others hold orange, purple, green and yellow balls. Several boys in casual shirts stand at the left and right edges watching. A man in white on the far right gestures with an open hand, and a red-and-white flower bush and a potted plant are visible at the top.
