A dimly lit hall filled with rows of seated devotees on black chairs, viewed from behind. Most wear white shirts and pale clothing, with a few in pink or light blue. The stage at the far end is backed by a painted blue and orange mural of mountains, decorated with flowers and an ornate seated figure, possibly a deity murti, in front. Tall vertical banners in red, orange and patterned fabric hang from the ceiling, and white draping covers the roof. Screens flank the stage. Dozens of people are visible, though most are partially obscured by the chairs in front of them.
