Night photograph inside a dark stone temple corridor with carved pillars on both sides. A large screen hangs at the far end showing a crowd of people. A dense crowd of devotees walks toward the screen, mostly in white and light-coloured clothing, with a woman in a white sari with a head covering in the foreground. Lights glow faintly above, and the scene is dim and atmospheric.

Night photograph inside a stone temple corridor with carved pillars and sculpted walls on both sides. A dense crowd of devotees, mostly men in white shirts and dhotis, stands packed together, with some women in saris and shawls.
