A lively group dance in a bright, tiled hall with spotlights overhead and framed pictures on the walls. Many devotees in orange, saffron and red clothing move energetically; one dancer in an orange outfit is mid-kick with a leg raised high. Others raise their arms and hands, some in white dhotis with orange sashes, and a few bare-chested men wear orange waist cloths. A dancer in a golden-yellow kurta and a bald man in white lower garments with an orange sash stand among the group. Several women in orange and purple saris and a lilac skirt are visible at the left. A child in white kneels in the lower right corner. The scene looks like a kirtan-style celebration.
