A procession moves through a stone temple corridor with carved grey pillars and yellow walls, lit by overhead tube lights. In the centre, a man in a red robe with a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace walks barefoot, with a white headcloth and a flower garland draped over his arm. Beside him, a man in orange robes holds a silver staff topped with a finial, and another orange-robed figure carries a floral garland. A woman in a dark maroon sari with gold jewellery follows, with more devotees behind. On the right, a bearded man in a white shirt and white dhoti, with a white forehead mark, walks past the camera. The scene suggests a temple darshan procession.
