Night procession outdoors where a smiling bearded man with long swept-back dark hair, a tilak on his forehead, a brown-red cloth draped over his shoulders and a gold necklace stands at the centre, with a long rudraksha-style mala hanging on his chest. Around him, men in white dhotis with gold borders, rudraksha malas and gold chains walk alongside, and a garlanded palanquin or ceremonial structure with white and red flower garlands appears at the right edge. Strings of lights hang on a red wall behind. The centre figure has distinctive long hair, a gold necklace and saffron-toned ceremonial clothing, a person cue, while the surrounding men are devotees or attendants.
