A dense outdoor crowd of devotees gathers on a sunny street in front of a school-style building with a green facade and a sign reading a Tamil government middle school. Many women wear saris in yellow, orange, pink and green, some carrying flower garlands and brass pots. A bare-chested man with a rudraksha mala stands in the foreground, and men in white shirts stand among the crowd. Posters on the wall to the right show a portrait of a saffron-robed figure and Tamil text. Several people have folded hands in reverence.
