A large hall with pink walls and red curtains hosts a seated group of devotees in white ritual clothes and rudraksha malas, facing a screen. In the foreground, three women in saffron-orange saris with maroon borders sit on orange cloths, performing a puja with brass plates, small lamps, kumkum and flowers. One holds a printed sheet and another a small brass item. A tall rear monitor shows a seated figure in orange on a throne, and two cameras on tripods record the proceedings. Decorative hanging banners and deity murtis appear at the back of the hall.
