A large group of devotees in saffron-orange draped garments dance energetically on a striped woven mat inside a pillared hall at night. Many raise their arms and clap, with women and men in orange cloth, several with long dark hair and rudraksha beads visible. Painted cylindrical pillars topped with red, white and blue designs stand in the background beside stone columns and hanging lamps. The mood is celebratory. No single a person candidate is clearly identifiable in this crowd.
