A wide-angle photograph of a temple-style stage in a hall with a blue backdrop, gold arches and a central deity murti decorated with garlands. Two white-clad priests in dhotis stand at the centre, reaching toward a decorated seated figure. A figure in saffron robes sits on a raised gold throne at left with a garland, while a saffron-clad man kneels near a brass tray and offerings. Several women in saffron and orange saris sit at the front on a cloth, some working at laptops, with a monitor showing the stage. Brass vessels, a kalasha-style pot and offerings lie on the floor. Standing figures in saffron at right, and a few seated figures at front, are visible.
