In the foreground, a line of women and men with hands folded in prayer face a vehicle-mounted platform carrying a deity murti (utsava murti) decorated with fresh garlands and flowers, with brass offering trays, lamps and fruit set on an orange cloth. A man in an orange robe and shawl stands at the left of the platform beneath a colourful multi-coloured umbrella with tassels. A man in white clothing stands on top of the vehicle, and a figure in white is seated inside the vehicle's windshield area. Several women wear white and cream saris, one in pink, and a man in a white shirt stands at right with a garland around his neck. Rudraksha-style beaded necklaces are visible on several devotees.
