A large outdoor crowd sits on the ground in rows at an open-air gathering, most dressed in white. Many men wear white shirts and dhotis, and several women wear white saris and salwar suits with patterned borders, some in orange, green and pink. A few hold their hands together in prayer. Behind a metal railing on the left, a man in a white dhoti with a yellow shawl and garland stands near a red-carpeted stairway. A thatched hut, a green water tank and palm trees sit in the background. A video camera on a tripod is set up in the front rows. No figure in the scene is clearly identifiable as a person.
