A large seated audience faces a stage in a hall, viewed from behind. Most attendees wear white shirts and dhotis or white kurtas, with some in checked and striped shirts, sitting on black chairs in rows. On the stage, a golden throne-like ornate structure with carved gold panels frames a seated figure in a golden-bordered setting. A banner behind reads KUMBH MELA Nasik 2015 and shows a large framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure. Two screens on either side show a live image of the stage. A camera operator on a tripod stands at the front, and a staff member in white stands near the stage side.
