A photograph of a crowded annadanam meal hall under a pink floral-printed canopy with bunting in red, green, blue and purple strung along the edges. Many devotees stand and mill about on a dirt floor, several holding steel plates and bowls of food. A bare-chested man in a white dhoti and shawl stands centre, and women in saris and salwar kameez are visible. Serving tables with steel trays of rice are at the lower left and foreground. Strip lights hang from the tent poles. The scene has many people, so the count range is 100+.
