Night ritual on a riverbank under a canopy hung with yellow marigold garlands and gold-finished pillars. A standing man in an orange-red dhoti and a beaded necklace presses his palms together at the centre, beside a brass kalasha and a small oil lamp on a yellow base. To the right, a decorated deity murti sits on a red-draped platform garlanded with flowers and fruit. Around them, a large seated gathering in white and orange clothing sits on green mats with hands folded in prayer; a red-turbaned priest sits at the front with brass vessels and offerings. A trident stands on the left, and street lights glow across the water behind.
