A large stage event with a seated figure on a red throne decorated with a tall arch of multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, green, purple and white. Above the throne stands a dark deity murti with a golden canopy/kalasha-like ornament and garlands. The seated central figure wears a saffron-coloured garment, a rudraksha mala, a pink garland and gold ornaments, with a golden halo behind the head. A trident-like ceremonial staff stands at the left side of the throne. In front, a row of devotees sits on a striped cloth: women in orange and saffron saris and men in white dhotis with orange upper cloths and bare upper bodies with tilak marks, some seen from behind. A pink-purple sky backdrop and a white fan are visible at the right. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the a person description in the event context, but identification is uncertain.
