A long outdoor line of many people stands on an open sandy-orange ground, arms raised overhead and hands clasped in a continuous chain. Most wear white kurtas, white dhotis, and white salwar-style clothing; others wear saris and lighter or coloured clothes, including a woman in a purple top and dark trousers near the front, a woman in a yellow skirt, and a person in a green top further right. The line bends slightly forward in a group exercise or activity. Palm trees, a low fence, a floodlight pole and a cloudy sky stand behind them.
