Outdoors in bright daylight, a man in a grey-white polo and olive cargo trousers grips a barbell on a white rack, bending forward as he lifts. A man in a long white kurta-style garment with a rudraksha mala stands close, hands raised near him as a spotter. Around them a crowd of men in white shirts and white dhotis-style clothing, many wearing rudraksha malas, some with orange cloth on their shoulders or heads, watch closely. A camera operator in a white shirt films at the left edge. Behind is a building with a red-tiled roof and palm trees. Visible people: about two dozen.
