A large outdoor tented gathering with a white canopy draped in red swags and striped red-and-white poles. Hundreds of people, mostly women and girls in white and coloured saris and salwar, sit in white plastic chairs facing a stage at the far end. On the stage, a central ornate golden throne-like seat and decorated backdrop stand behind several figures in saffron and orange robes seated before it, while a figure in white stands near the centre. Loudspeakers flank the stage and a red-and-white curtain frames the side.
