A man in a red saffron-toned dhoti and gold ceremonial necklaces sits on a zebra-striped seat, pulling a thick rope with both hands in yellow gloves. A small red tilak marks his forehead and his shoulder is bare. Behind him a golden kalasha-style ornament hangs on a pole, and a table draped with a floral cloth holds a flower arrangement and a digital timer reading 14:26. Several people sit and stand in the background under a bright sky with palm trees. a person appears as a bare-shouldered figure in red with gold necklaces, performing the rope-pulling activity during the event.
