Outdoor temple scene in daylight. A small stone shrine with carved pillars and white bull figures on its roof stands under trees, with a deity murti adorned with garlands and a crown inside. A man in an orange robe sits within the shrine beside the murti, with brass vessels and offerings. In front, a large seated crowd of devotees, many in orange and white clothing and several women with long braids, faces the shrine. Colourful striped umbrellas and orange-tipped staffs stand nearby, and a cameraman in white stands at the right edge filming.
