A group of young men in orange saffron garments sit in rows on a paved ground before a red-painted wall. Many wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and white ash markings on their foreheads and bodies. Several hold thin pink sticks and play small metal percussion instruments set on the ground in front of them. On the right a large drum with a striped cover is played by a seated musician. Concrete posts and a tree stand behind the wall.

They wear orange-saffron cloth wraps and multiple strands of rudraksha beads, with some bare-chested. One boy in front wears glasses and plays a small metal drum, while a young man beside him with a red tilak on his forehead plays a shallow metal drum. Behind them a large drum and a wooden pole stand against a wall with wooden doors. Several onlookers' parts are visible at the bottom edge.2017-07-24A seated group of young men in saffron-orange dhoti-style cloths performs drumming at a red-draped stage.

Others behind hold sticks and small hand cymbals or metal bowls. The background shows a white-and-gold decorated altar, and a crowd of onlookers sits on the floor, including a figure in blue at left.
