Outdoor festival procession on a sunny day under a blue sky. A man seated on an ornate silver palanquin wears an orange robe with a white dhoti, a red-and-gold headband, and a white floral garland, with a large orange and white cloth beneath him. Behind him stands a smiling man in a black jacket with a white cloth, also wearing an orange headband. Two large multicolored umbrellas with tasselled fringes and blue, green and gold panels sit over the palanquin, and a crowd of youths in white with orange shawls walks alongside, some holding balloons and poles. Orange flags flutter in the background.
