A photograph inside a red-carpeted tent at an event, with a queue of women and children moving past a brass railing toward a shrine area. A woman in a red salwar kameez with a yellow dupatta raises a hand toward the shrine. Beside her an older woman wears a dark patterned sari with a pink-red shawl, and a woman on the right wears a green kurta with a pink dupatta and holds a black bag. Two young girls, one in a yellow top and one in a white floral dress, and a small boy in a checked shirt stand in the line. Behind them crowds fill the tent, with orange and red canopies, decorated stands, a brass vessel and a small white animal figure on the left. No a person candidate is clearly visible.

A dense crowd of devotees fills a red-carpeted temple hall, many people pressing toward a shrine at the right. Women wear saris and salwar kameez in red, yellow, purple and green, some with headscarves, while men wear shirts and trousers. Ornate gold and stone temple architecture frames a deity murti decorated with colourful garlands and tassels, with brass oil lamps set before it.
