Devotees in white kurtas and orange-red shawls stand in an ornate gilded hall with golden arched niches and deity murtis. In the foreground a bald man in a white shirt holds up a large cardboard cutout of a smiling figure with long dark hair, saffron-orange robes, a rudraksha mala and a garland, while others nearby hold blank white boards. The cutout depicts a sannyasi-style figure; it is a printed image, not a physical person. The visible physical people appear in white with orange shawls and rudraksha malas.
