A cameraman in white stands at left filming. Overhead, a large screen shows a woman in an orange shawl with folded hands in greeting. Two tall decorative banners with woven patterns hang from the ceiling, and a black-and-white sign on the right reads children under 12 years not allowed and photography prohibited. Most audience members are women in saris and salwar kameez in mixed colours, with some older attendees visible.
