A serving line at an ashram meal, with food being dished from steel trays behind a clear plastic sneeze guard. A man in a red-orange turban and gold necklace, wearing a leopard-print garment and gold-trimmed clothing, leans over the trays serving rice from a large ladle, with a gold bracelet on his wrist. Beside him a woman in a white and green sari with an embroidered border stands at the counter. On the right a bearded man in a grey t-shirt and red beaded mala holds a plate, and in the background other people and colourful hanging lanterns are visible. The scene suggests an annadan food service.
