A photograph taken from behind of two men seated on a raised stage edge in a large dark conference hall, facing a crowd of seated attendees. The nearer man wears a white shirt and a red-and-black patterned cloth draped over his shoulders; the man beside him wears a black top with a red cloth around his neck. Their backs are toward the camera. Ahead, rows of participants fill the hall, many in colourful saris. Monitors and a laptop sit on the stage, and a large screen on the right shows a live view. A woman in orange and red sits to the left. Stage lights glow at the top left.

Wide view from the back of a hall filled with seated devotees in white clothes with red shoulder sashes, facing a stage. On the stage, a figure in white stands at the centre near a decorated backdrop showing painted deity figures and ornate pillars, with a large golden deity murti or decorated idol at left. Two large screens flank the stage showing a similar scene. Framed devotional portraits hang on the side walls, and ceiling fans and red drapes complete the hall. Most attendees are seated in black plastic chairs; one person in a blue shirt is in the foreground at right. Roughly a hundred people are visible.

The audience faces a stage with a large golden deity murti and ornate gold-framed shrine. Side screens show a figure in saffron-coloured clothing. Dark red curtains and pillars frame the hall. A figure on the stage appears in a white and orange outfit, but the appearance is too uncertain for a firm identification. Several attendees sit in the foreground.
