Outdoor ceremony under a corrugated metal canopy with palm fronds and colourful bunting. A bearded man in a reddish-brown dhoti and a long white-and-gold beaded garland walks barefoot down a brick path toward the viewer, a large gold pendant on his chest. A long line of women in orange, pink, blue and magenta saris stands on both sides with palms pressed together in namaskar. Men in white kurta and red printed kurta stand at left, and a woman in orange at far left also joins her hands. Behind them, an ornate decorated structure with yellow and red floral motifs and a tall palm-fronded pillar. Faint coloured powder lies on the brick floor. A bare-shouldered devotee in a yellow garment is seen from behind in the foreground.
