Indoor photo of a group of men dancing energetically in a bright hall with a white tiled ceiling, fluorescent lights and ceiling fans. Most wear saffron-orange dhotis with red and gold borders and bare upper bodies, with white ritual dhotis worn by some others. Several have sandalwood or white markings on their foreheads and rudraksha malas and beaded necklaces. A man in a rust-coloured kurta and a man with hair tied up in a topknot are prominent. Their movements suggest a joyful group dance or procession-style celebration, with blurred limbs conveying motion.
