A road procession moves along an asphalt highway past a green hillside. Red and saffron flags on poles and red umbrellas lead the group, and a decorated vehicle carries a deity murti at the centre. Men and women in white dhotis, shawls and saris walk alongside, several in saffron or orange robes, while one man in red-brown robes is near the front. A bus behind them reads NITHYANANDAM, and a truck with yellow machinery stands at left. A man on the verge in white clothes photographs the procession with a phone.
