Night outdoor scene at an ashram ground where children play the Uri attam game beneath a suspended wooden dangler strung with decorated clay pots, some pots hanging wrapped in colourful streamers and ribbons. A figure in a long saffron-orange robe with a wrap stands centre-left holding a stick, facing the hanging pots, with a bucket at their feet. Surrounding them are a crowd of children and adults in white and light clothing, a man in white kurta and a few people wearing orange shawls on the right. A striped, multicoloured pole stands at the right edge; an orange-walled building with a lit doorway and a white vehicle are in the background under dark sky.
