A large audience of devotees, mostly men in white shirts and white dhotis, sits on black plastic chairs facing a stage in a hall. A banner reading "KUMBH MELA Nasik 2015" hangs behind a gilded ornate throne with a seated figure. Two large screens on either side show a figure in orange and red robes with a red turban and garlands, consistent with a depiction of Swamiji (probable) on the screens. Several people in the foreground wear white, and a few wear orange or saffron. A camera on a tripod is visible near the stage. The crowd fills most of the frame, with some people seated on the floor at left.
