A large hall with white draped ceiling and colourful hanging pillars shows a seated congregation on mats facing a stage decorated with flowers and a deity murti or altar with lit lamps. Many devotees in white clothing and orange, yellow and green garments sit cross-legged with brass vessels and offerings in front of them. A projection screen hangs on the right wall. No figure on the stage can be clearly identified as a candidate from appearance, so the scene is described by role only.
