A photograph of an indoor hall with a maroon curtain stage and white tiled floor, where many colourful folded bundles of fabric in orange, red, blue and green lie in rows. A bare-chested man with a rudraksha mala wearing a white dhoti sits cross-legged on the floor at left, handling the bundles. Beside him a smiling man in a white shirt and white trousers stands and holds a bundle. Tripods and cameras sit near the stage, and a few people sit at the back of the hall. A blue tarpaulin lies at left and a sign with text hangs on the left wall.
