A photograph of a crowd at a festooned shrine entrance decorated with orange and yellow marigold garlands and a white-and-red pillared canopy. A man in a saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala stands at centre, one arm extended toward a man in a blue-and-white striped cloth at lower left, while devotees in white shirts and dhotis press around. A bald man in a white kurta stands at right. The orange-robed man's long hair and ornamentation are not clearly visible enough to confirm identity, so the appearance match is uncertain.
