Several men wear rudraksha malas and white sacred ash on their foreheads and arms, and a few raise their hands in devotion. A shirtless man in orange dhoti with a rudraksha mala and bare chest kneels in front, hands raised. A man in cream kurta with a visitor badge claps, and a young woman in white with an orange shawl smiles at right. No single figure is identifiable as a person in this crowd shot.
