Several young girls in orange saffron saris with maroon-red borders sit in a row on an orange cloth at night, with white vertical tilak marks on their foreheads and wooden rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. The girl in front holds a small stick or wick, and others hold dried bundled sticks on a leaf. Devotees sit in the background, and a few lights are visible in the dark setting.
