Outdoor daytime event under a red and yellow canopy. A shaved-headed man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala sits centrally on a raised red-draped platform, surrounded by many children and teenagers in maroon and mustard-trimmed uniforms. A woman in an orange sari with a shawl and a dark mala stands at the right edge beside a brass kalasha-style vessel on a table. Many more onlookers stand behind a rope barrier under a bright sky with trees.
