The man at left, in white kurta and white dhoti, plays a barrel-shaped drum (mridangam or similar) laid across his lap. The central singer, in a pale yellow kurta and white dhoti, sits cross-legged before a microphone on a stand, gesturing with his right hand. At right, a man in a pink-white kurta plays a violin-type string instrument held against his shoulder. A water bottle sits on the stage, and a fan and yellow lampshade are visible at the upper right. A small wooden-toned sign hangs in the background.
