Night-time outdoor gathering with a crowd of men and a young boy in front of a seated figure on a raised platform. In the foreground, a leopard-print garment is visible on the seated person, and an orange cloth, marigold and red flowers, and fruit lie in front. Men in white shirts and dhotis, one wearing a black beaded mala, lean in attentively, with a boy in a checked shirt looking up. A bright floodlight and red decorative pots are visible in the background. The leopard-print clothing is not a distinctive cue for a person candidate, so the presence of a person cannot be confirmed.
