A stage performance on a red carpeted platform in front of an ornate golden throne with carved lion-head armrests and a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat. A performer in a full orange-and-black tiger-striped bodysuit with a tiger-face headpiece crouches low in the foreground, one hand raised. Seated on the throne is a figure in a rust-red robe and red turban wearing a long beaded mala. A tall golden trident stands to the left. Around the stage, seated and standing participants wear white dhotis and cream shawls with rudraksha malas, and women wear red and pink saris. A small girl in a teal outfit sits at right. A red-and-gold backdrop and a standing fan complete the scene.
