A figure stands on a stage beside an ornate gilded throne-like seat, holding a silver trident in the right hand and resting the left hand on the hip. He wears an orange-red turban, a multi-strand rudraksha-style mala necklace and a patterned purple and gold waist cloth. Purple and magenta haze fills the stage, with brass oil lamps on both sides and a leafy potted plant near the seat. A backdrop shows a geometric triangle lattice in red and purple light. A cameraman with a video camera on a tripod films from the left, and a silhouetted audience fills the foreground.
