A shaved-headed man in a white dhoti and red-bordered shawl stands barefoot on a green mat between a white metal frame, gripping its horizontal bar, while a hanging device is set up beside him. Around them a large crowd of mostly young men in white kurtas and white dhotis, some with orange headbands and orange-clad onlookers, claps and watches, with seated children in front. A white building and parked vehicles sit behind the open dirt ground.
