A dense crowd of men in white shirts and white dhotis walks through a street procession toward a decorated ratha in the background. Several men wear rudraksha malas and saffron-orange cloths, and one bald man in an orange garment with rudraksha beads is prominent in the foreground. Tridents on tall golden poles rise above the crowd at upper left, and a gold-and-red chariot with floral garlands and string lights stands behind. Many people raise their hands in celebration while others smile.
