Most wear white dhotis or saris with gold borders and red-brown shawls, and many have rudraksha malas and tilaka marks on their foreheads. In the foreground a woman with short white hair and glasses sits near a woman with a red shawl and a bald-headed person in white clothing with a red shawl. Two large screens on the back wall show a figure on a stage. A few people in orange stand near the back. The overall setting appears to be a Navaratri darshan gathering.
