Outdoor stage event under a white tent with yellow drapes and marigold and jasmine garlands along the stage edge. A man in orange robes with a shaved head stands center, holding a brass aarti lamp with a flame and a flower garland on its stand, as two men in white shirts and white dhotis stand beside him with hands folded. Another orange-robed man stands behind, and a robed figure kneels at left near a large gold-framed plaque with red cushions. Flower vases sit at the stage corners and a banner shows the number 1008 in Kannada-style script with two framed portraits.
