Interior photograph of a hall with a sloped white fabric ceiling and hanging cylindrical banners in red, blue, yellow and white patterns. On a raised dais at the back, a large painted backdrop shows a temple-like scene with a deity murti, and a figure in orange sits on a golden seat with devotees around him. Rows of seated devotees in white clothes fill the floor in front of the stage, many shaven-headed, with some in orange, sitting on a red striped mat. Oil lamps are lit on the stage steps and a projection screen hangs on the wall. The scene resembles a pada puja gathering. Roughly fifty or more people are visible.
