A crowded photograph inside a stone-pillared temple corridor decorated with orange and white marigold garlands and hanging green mango-leaf torans. Columns are wrapped in striped fabric with blue medallions and yellow flowers. Many men in white shirts and dhotis press together, with a man in the foreground wearing a black shoulder bag and dark hair. No one wearing saffron, crown or rudraksha is clearly visible, so no a person candidate is identified. Beyond the archway, a bright open doorway shows figures in the distance.
