Many men in white shirts and white dhotis walk closely together, several wearing rudraksha or beaded mala necklaces; one man in a white shirt has N.D.S.S. printed on the back. A devotee in a white dhoti and orange sash holds a long garland of white flowers. A red and gold ceremonial umbrella with a yellow emblem is raised above the crowd, and orange flags are carried. Some people wear orange or red headcloths. A large crowd fills the frame.

A dense street procession in daylight with a large crowd of men in white shirts and dhotis pressing around a central figure. A saffron-robed man with a long garland of marigolds and red flowers walks under a multicoloured canopy umbrella with a fringed edge and painted panels, held aloft on a pole. Two smaller orange and red decorated fans or canopies flank the group.
