Wide view from the back of a large hall filled with a dense crowd of seated devotees, mostly men in white dhotis and shirts with some women in saris and salwars, all facing a stage. On stage, a large ornate golden throne with a radiating golden backdrop stands before a deep red draped curtain, with a central figure seated on it. Large screens on both sides show a figure in an orange and white outfit. A camera crane and cameramen operate near the front, and rows of brass oil lamps stand along the aisle at right.
