Outdoor crowd scene at a dusty courtyard beside pink-washed single-storey buildings with corrugated roofs. A large crowd of young men fills the frame: many in white shirts and white dhotis, others in black shirts. Near the centre, a shirtless man wearing a red cloth around his waist and a red headband, and another bare-chested man with a white flower garland, are carried or led forward. Several men in saffron-orange shawls and white clothes stand around them. Above, a multicoloured arch of green, yellow, orange and pink garlands frames a raised object, possibly an image or palanquin, held aloft. A bearded older man in white stands at right. Trees and a blue logo appear at the top left.
