Outdoor temple ritual under a large orange canopy with red, green and yellow medallion patterns, supported by blue poles. A fire pit with burning flames sits on a paved platform in the centre, surrounded by brick-lined offering pots, flower-decked kalasha-style vessels and small brass bowls. A bare-chested priest in white dhoti with a red sash stands at the left, and a young man in orange robes with a red-and-orange shawl stands near the centre-right with hands folded. An older man in saffron-orange cloth and a rudraksha-style mala stands near the fire, and a man in white with a red-and-orange shawl and yellow bag stands at the right edge. A small girl in pink stands among the devotees. Behind them are multi-coloured temple structures, painted gopurams and a green deity statue with raised arms.
