Street procession crowd in a town. A man with long swept-back dark hair, orange clothing, a red forehead mark and a multicoloured flower garland reaches out with his right hand toward a crowd of women. Behind him, another person in an orange robe walks among men in white shirts and dhotis. Above them, an orange-and-gold decorated umbrella canopy and an orange flag. A bus and roadside signs advertising cement and Lady Care appear in the background. Many elderly women in saffron and multicoloured saris line the street, some with bright red or pink borders and flower garlands.
