Night-time outdoor scene on a sandy ground in front of a golden, illuminated temple tower with a lit gopuram-style structure at left. Several shaved-headed men in saffron-orange and ochre robes play drums: at left a man in red-brown and gold-bordered cloth beats a green-and-white drum, a man in the centre plays a blue-and-silver drum, and a man at right in orange with a red sash and rudraksha beads stands near. A man in the foreground with his back to the camera wears an orange robe with yellow border and a cross-body bag. A trident, a pale headband and white forehead markings are visible on several participants. Sandals are worn; one drummer stands barefoot.
