A dense crowd of devotees gathers at night in a narrow street during an evening procession, with many people pressing together with palms joined in anjali mudra. Women in saris of orange, yellow, pink, blue and green stand alongside men in white shirts and dhotis; a woman in a yellow-gold sari and a man in a white shirt are prominent in the front. Faces show devotion and concentration, and a few children are visible among the adults. Buildings with barred windows and a low concrete wall line the right side, and a small blue-and-white logo appears in the upper left corner.
