Large tented hall with a red carpet where many saffron-robed sadhus sit in rows on the floor, many wearing orange and red turbans. Volunteers in white kurtas and orange shirts, and a woman in a pink dress, bend forward to serve food onto leaf plates and pour water into cups placed before the seated sadhus. Red and white striped tent poles and red drapes frame the scene, with a speaker and lights overhead. This appears to be a communal feeding at the Kumbh camp.

Many people sit cross-legged on the floor in saffron and orange robes, several with orange head wraps, eating from silver thali plates with small steel cups. Women in yellow, pink and green saris move between the rows serving food, and a row of gold-edged low tables with plates stands at right. Red and white tent panels and orange-tipped poles frame the hall.
