Night procession on open dirt ground. Three men in white dhotis and white shirts carry a wooden palanquin-style platform bearing a large illuminated deity murti in orange and red, seated on a purple cushion with a crown and trident-like staff. Behind them, a fourth man carries a white-wrapped bundle on his shoulder. On the right, musicians in orange and red robes play drums and cymbals. Bamboo poles and small lanterns stand in the background under a dark sky.
