Outdoor street procession with a large crowd pressing around a truck with a black speaker stack and a banner reading "VELMURUGAN". Above, a multicoloured canopy and tall poles topped with trident-like tips and a decorated flag mark the procession. At the centre, a long-haired man bare-chested in an orange cloth holds a ceremonial staff and a trident-shaped standard. Nearby, several men in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas walk among devotees in white, and a bearded man in an orange shawl with a garland stands at left. Banana plants line the route and the scene is lit by low sunlight.
