Dense night crowd of hundreds of pilgrims packed along a lit road at a Kumbh Mela-style fair, with many men and women in saffron, orange, yellow and white clothing, several wearing orange or yellow turbans and headscarves. Parked white vans and cars line the road on the left and right, with food stalls, banners and bright lights overhead. Overlapping figures fill the frame; no individual figure can be clearly identified as a particular person.
