A narrow, dim covered alley lined with closed roll-down shutters on both sides, with a light strip overhead. A red bicycle with a rear fender is parked against a wall on the left, and a second bicycle is partly visible further back. A signboard with faded lettering hangs on the right wall. No people are visible; the scene is an empty street passage in Tiruvannamalai's old shopping lanes.
