The woman at centre in a blue skirt and red blouse holds a microphone and speaks, with gold jewellery, a bindi and a flower in her hair. Others wear magenta, yellow, brown and blue-red saris, with pearl and gold necklaces and bangles, and some hold their hands clasped. A partially visible figure in pink at left and a brass vessel at lower right are also in frame. The setting suggests a programme or cultural presentation on stage.
