A street procession in Tiruvannamalai seen through the open window of a white car. Inside the car, a person's bare arm with a red-thread wrist band rests on the dashboard, sprinkled with turmeric or flower petals, with a steering wheel and infotainment screen visible. Outside, crowded children and a woman in a red blouse and orange sari press toward the car. Behind them, a decorated temple chariot with red and yellow pillars and a deity figure on it moves along the road. A bare-chested man in orange cloth stands among others in white dhotis, and a man in a white shirt stands near a blue car. Small temple gopuram is visible in the background.
