A large crowd of devotees fills a tented hall, mostly women in white and cream saris with hair in long braids, with some in pink, red and multicolored dress. Behind them, a golden throne with red cushions sits before a large backdrop painting of multiple deities in a sky setting, including figures with blue skin, a figure seated on a lotus, and a flower-like halo. A seated figure in white and orange sits on the throne, and to the right stands a person in saffron robes. Decorative pillars with colourful geometric patterns and yellow fabric hang from the tent ceiling, with maroon drapery framing the stage.
