A large indoor yoga session fills a hall with a crowd of participants in black and white, facing a central figure seated on a white and red throne-like chair at the front. A man with long dark hair and a beard, wearing an orange-toned garment, sits on the throne, appearing to lead the session; the appearance-based label is a person on the throne. Many people stand in rows on striped mats, hands on hips, in yoga-style postures. A woman in a pink top and black pants stands in the foreground left, and a woman in a white dress stands near the centre. Behind the stage hangs a large blue starry backdrop with a golden deity murti at the top, and gold ornamental panels and red drapes frame the hall.
