A festive procession on a dusty road with a white convertible car at the centre, its bonnet garlanded with a thick multicoloured flower garland and a white-and-red floral chain, and its number plate reading KA 01 D 6. Many ornate umbrellas in orange, yellow, pink, blue and purple, with tasselled edges, are raised over the crowd. Young women in gold and yellow silk saris with green borders, flower-braided hair and gold jewellery scatter petals and gesture toward the car. Men in white dhotis and shawls walk among them, and some attendants wear saffron. The car's occupants are partly visible behind the windscreen. Palm trees and a metal scaffold structure stand in the background under bright sky.
