October 09 20162016-10-09Indoor devotional music performance on a raised red-draped stage in a hall with pink walls, a green-leaved artificial tree and green sparkly curtains. Three women sing into microphones: the left one wears an orange and yellow saree and has long hair down her back, the centre one wears a black-and-white saree, and the right one wears a blue and purple saree. A seated man in an orange shawl and white dhoti sits at the left edge, and a man in a rust-coloured kurta plays a harmonium at the right. Hand drums and a golden pillar frame the scene, and a screen at the back shows a colourful religious image. Standing devotees in white and casual clothes watch from behind.2016-10-09October 02 20162016-10-02October 02 20162016-10-02October 02 20162016-10-02October 02 20162016-10-02November 24 20142014-11-24November 24 20142014-11-24Six women seated cross-legged on a red draped stage perform devotional singing before an ornate gold-carved wall lit with rows of small oil lamps.
