A large black stone or painted murti of a deity stands on a stage before a blue LED backdrop with radiating light rays. The figure wears a rust-orange cloth wrapped on the head and tied around the chest, layered gold and red jewelled necklaces, and a rich ornate belt. Multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow and white hang down both sides. Above the head rises a large shimmering teal hooded canopy shaped like a cobra's hood. The right hand is raised in abhaya mudra. No physical people are visible; the murti is the sole figure, with stage lighting fixtures overhead.
