A dense crowd of devotees fills a hall, most dressed in white kurtas and pants with yellow shawls or cloths draped over their shoulders. Many wear name badges on lanyards. Some people in the foreground stand with arms outstretched, linking hands with others across the crowd, while seated devotees sit on the floor. Red and orange carpeting runs through the centre aisle, with red and white striped drapes and a decorated ceiling in the background. No single figure in the scene can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so no candidate is named.
