Street procession in a village lane with smoke or incense haze in the air. A central figure in an orange-saffron robe and a bright orange turban, wearing a garland of flowers, has hands pressed to the face in greeting while others raise their hands. Beside them stands a figure in a long orange robe with gold bangles on the wrist, and a woman in a cream sari with a green border and gold necklace. Men in white shirts and dhotis crowd around, one holding a red umbrella. A parked silver van and small shop signs line the street, with palm trees behind. The central figure's identity is not established by visible cues alone, so it is described by role only.
