Night-time outdoor gathering under a white tarpaulin canopy with blue metal supports and a bright floodlight. A large framed black-and-white portrait of a woman with long dark hair is mounted on the backdrop, with Tamil text printed above it. Dozens of devotees in white dhotis and white shirts or saris crowd around a raised white flower-decorated platform where a figure in orange cloth stands. A man in white at the right operates a camera on a tripod. Trays of fruit and offerings sit on a red-draped table at the left. Many attendees wear rudraksha malas. A woman in orange and another in pink saris stand near the front.
