A photograph of a large hall where people sit at red-topped tables eating meals from steel plates and cups. In the foreground a woman in pink with a pink hair tie sits with her back to the camera, and a woman in a blue patterned top eats at a table beside a woman in a light green salwar kameez who holds a phone to her ear. Several people in white clothes, including a man with a white shirt and a white sash, eat along the long table. Orange and red draped cloth hangs on the right, and framed portraits hang on the wall behind the tables. Chairs are arranged in rows across the open floor with a stage area at the far end.
