A photograph of a dusty outdoor field at sunset where a group of men in white clothes play kabaddi, a contact sport. In the foreground a player in a white T-shirt with red lettering and a red waist cloth leans forward low to the ground, one arm stretched out, kicking up dust. Around him several men in white kurtas and dhotis, and some in white or light shirts, run and crouch with bare feet on the sandy ground. Slightly behind them stands a bald man in an orange-saffron robe with a wrap, watching the game. Red-roofed buildings, trees and parked vehicles fill the background, and a woman in a dark sari walks at the far right.
