A large hall with a red carpet runner down the centre floor and confetti scattered on it. A long line of people in white and cream clothing stands with palms pressed together in greeting, mostly women in white saris with some in pastel and coloured saris, along with men in white shirts. A man in white with a lanyard in the foreground claps, and a man in a white shirt stands at the right edge. A large portrait banner at the right edge shows a bald-headed, smiling figure in orange-tinged clothing beside text reading in part 'WORLD ... CONF', and a stained-glass arched window and rows of folding chairs line the walls under ceiling lights and fans.
