A large crowd of devotees presses together outdoors beside green shrubs and trees. Most wear white shirts with orange scarves or sashes, and one man wears an orange cap. In the centre a black portable speaker with a microphone stands on a stand, and a raised arm in a white sleeve with a bangle and beaded bracelet reaches toward it. Many people have dark hair, some women have plaited hair, and the crowd appears to be following an event at the speaker, possibly during a girivalam walk.
