Evening outdoor gathering under a canopy of green cloth strung with multicoloured bunting, lit by overhead tube lights. Rows of seated men in white shirts and mundu-style white clothes listen toward a red carpeted stage at right, decorated with potted green plants. On the stage a woman in an orange sari sits near a small table with papers. Behind her hangs a large banner with Tamil script and portraits, including a framed photo of a bearded man with long hair and a deity image. In the foreground a shaved-headed person in orange and white sits with their back to the camera, and plastic chairs fill the sandy ground.
