A decorated indoor hall with a corrugated roof, hanging paper star lanterns and tall cylindrical pillars painted with floral and bird motifs. A procession walks down a red carpet between metal railings. A woman in a cream and gold sari with a red garland leads, while men in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha malas walk alongside. A man in white dhoti with a yellow shawl on the right holds a camera. Several other devotees in white and yellow follow along the mats. A bright altar area glows at the far end.
