Three people walk along a dirt-edged road in front of a white boundary wall and young trees. Left, a person with short curly dark hair and a rudraksha mala wears orange robes and carries a tall bamboo staff with an orange cloth tied to its top. Centre, a smiling woman in orange robes and orange drape carries a similar staff. Right, a woman with light hair in a white dhoti-style garment with an orange shawl walks holding a staff. Dry ground and a small concrete edge lie in the foreground.

Women in white saris with orange-and-gold borders and orange shawls walk and clap, some holding orange-and-gold decorated fans or whisks. One woman at the front right holds a wooden staff with an orange umbrella overhead, and a large ornate orange-and-gold ceremonial banner is visible at the upper left. Several participants wear white cloth over their heads. Other people stand at the edge of the scene, with a man in a dark shirt standing to the far right. No clearly identifiable a person figure is visible.

A group of about ten women walks along a dirt path in open countryside, carrying long bamboo poles with small orange flags. Most wear orange saris with white borders or plain white robes with orange shawls, and several wear rudraksha malas. In the foreground a smiling woman in an orange sari holds a pole, while at the right a woman in a white sari with gold border and a rudraksha mala walks beside a figure in white with a long dark braid and orange shawl. Behind them are a low red-roofed building, scrub trees and rocky hills under a cloudy sky.

Behind them is a tall copper-coloured pillar with garlands, a white painted base, and a dark stone deity murti on the left. A small wooden fence and a red-doored hut stand at right. Some women smile or look toward the left side of the frame.
