A smiling man in a yellow-orange shirt with a red-printed pattern and orange lower garment stands centre, holding a small shirtless boy. A bare-chested man with wet hair and a rudraksha-style bead necklace stands at right, holding another boy. Two more men in checked and plain shirts stand at left. Behind them are riverside ghats, pink and red buildings, a red-walled structure, and a red-and-orange bridge at right, with hills above. The scene shows people wading in the river together on a rainy day.
