A man with long, swept-back dark hair walks down a central aisle in a large tent hall, wearing an orange saffron wrap and a red-brown rudraksha mala, with sandals on his feet. He appears to be a person by his long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, though the identification is not certain. Rows of red plastic chairs line the hall, and the floor on either side is covered with green-and-yellow striped mats scattered with white cloth bundles and belongings. At the back, a yellow banner shows a large tree, and a small deity murti with flowers and offerings sits on a table near shelves of goods. Ceiling fans hang beneath the white tent roof, with blue drapery along the top edge.
