From an old French coloured film showing religious customs and ceremonies in Mailam in South India 30 km from Pondicherry. See my other clips on old India.
A viewer reports: This video looks like Maasi Magam Festival being celebrated in Pondicherry in the Tamil month of Maasi (probably 15 February to 14 of March) seashore every year. Urchavar Idols from the shrines around Pondicherry are gathered on the Vaithikuppam beach for Kadal Theerthavaari. People from villages and towns have come together to workship God, the special idols are Mailam Murugan, Tindivanam Ranganathar & Theevanur Pillayar
