Night procession with a crowd of devotees dancing and raising their hands under coloured stage lights. A golden ceremonial umbrella with an orange canopy and fringe is held aloft at the left, near a lit lamp on a pole. Many men in white dhotis and white shirts are visible, some wearing orange or yellow headcloths and rudraksha-style beads. A woman in a white head covering stands in the centre-right. Strings of green and pink lights line the background. The people are not clearly identifiable as any particular individual, so no a person candidate is confirmed.
