A large crowd of seated men, boys and young men fills a white tented pavilion at night, lit by hanging lamps. Many wear white kurtas and shirts, some with saffron or yellow garments and lanyards, while others sit on blue and white plastic chairs. Some rows sit on the ground and some people in front lean forward, attentive to a stage area off to the left where a saffron-clad figure stands. Blue and white draped partitions and red decorations line the back of the tent.
