Indoor photograph of a hall with a white ceiling tent, yellow and orange patterned drapes on the poles, and a zebra-print armchair at right. A man in white kurta, white cap and dhoti stands with palms pressed together in namaste, leading a procession of people toward the chair. A woman in an orange sari with a beaded necklace walks barefoot beside him, and a man in an orange robe stands behind. Several people in white and orange clothing move through the room, and white plastic chairs line the left side. The scene reads as a gathering in a devotional hall, with the people arranging themselves around the empty chair.
