Three young women in matching orange gymnastic outfits perform an acrobatic human pyramid suspended from a ceiling rope inside a hall. The top performer is balanced on the shoulders of the middle performer, who holds a cloth loop, while the bottom performer lifts them from below with her legs hooked in the rope. Behind them, rows of seated devotees wear orange and white turbans and clothing and clap. On the left, a gold-trimmed throne or ornate chair stands beside a colourful striped pillar, and a framed portrait hangs on the wall. The atmosphere is celebratory and festive.

The upper performer, in orange pants and top with a pink sash, extends one arm upward while the lower performer, in orange tights, holds the other's legs and grips the fabric. Below them, a seated audience in white clothes with orange and red shoulder cloths and orange turbans watches; a child and a woman in the front row look up smiling. Colourful striped decorative poles hang from the ceiling on both sides, and a golden deity murti sits near the back wall beside a framed portrait.2013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copies
