Two men sit lower down playing drums: one in a checked white shirt, another in white shirt and maroon lungi tapping a small drum. At right, a small wooden side table with a flower arrangement and water bottle beside a zebra-print cushioned seat, and an orange cloth draped on the step. Several seated devotees in white and saffron-coloured clothing watch from the upper steps.
