Nearby, a man in a red cap and white shirt stands at left, an elderly man with white hair and a white dhoti and shawl stands in the centre, and an older woman in white with grey hair is visible at right. Several boys in white school-style shirts and a man in an orange shirt are among the onlookers, and a blue kiosk stands at right.
