Photograph taken from behind a large seated audience in white clothes at an indoor hall, facing a raised stage with a painted backdrop of green trees and deity murtis in red and white. On the stage, a figure in an orange robe sits on a golden throne-like seat with a red cushion, flanked by several people seated on the stage floor in white and colourful saris. A tripod-mounted camera stands at the right side of the stage, and orange drapes hang from the top of the hall. The audience is dense, mostly men with short dark or greying hair, many wearing white shirts, one in a plaid shirt and one in a white jersey. Orange curtains frame the top of the stage area.
