Outdoors on a dry, sandy open field with patchy grass, palm trees and a red-brick wall behind, a line of men in white shirts and white dhotis or trousers stand in a row with palms pressed together overhead, arms raised and joined to form an arch as they bend and move together in a group exercise. A man in a striped grey polo shirt and dark track pants leads the front of the line with his arms extended forward. Behind them, a loose crowd of women in white and light-coloured saris and salwar kameez watches from the left. A stray dog stands at the far left edge.
