Outdoor photo of a crowd lifting a large woven bamboo basket overhead toward a figure in orange robes. The central figure wears an orange saffron-coloured garment, a multi-strand beaded necklace with a red bead and a pendant, and has flowers and petals in the hair and on the shoulders. Many people around them reach up with raised arms, several wearing white shirts and dhotis, some with bangles and rings. Bystanders in white and maroon shirts watch; one older man has a forehead mark. A stone gopuram temple tower and a utility pole are visible in the background, and a bare-armed man on the right has a tattoo reading Guruvae My Life.
