A photograph of a crowded village street with a large group of men and some women gathered outdoors near a tiled-roof house and tall trees. In the foreground, two drummers in blue and green sports-style vests play drums, one with a drumstick raised. Behind them a crowd of men in white shirts and dhotis, and a few others in colourful clothing, press forward. At the centre, a bald young man wearing a white dhoti and shawl and a beaded necklace stands with hands folded in namaskar, beside another young man in an orange-red robe and beaded mala, also with hands pressed together. On the right, a yellow vehicle with a loudspeaker and a white van are parked. A purple flag is visible at upper left. The two young men in the centre are possible candidates for a person by appearance, but the cues are not distinctive enough to confirm, so identity is uncertain.
