A dim open-sided pavilion with a corrugated roof, hung with rows of colourful balloons in red, orange, yellow, green and blue. Hundreds of seated devotees in white fill the foreground, shown as dark silhouettes. On a raised platform at the back, several figures in saffron and orange robes stand near a decorated deity murti framed by a large ornate backdrop, with a black umbrella held overhead. Flanking the stage are carved wooden figures and garlanded statues. The scene suggests a festival programme or darshan in progress.
