A stage in a hall displays a row of ornate golden thrones and palanquin-style seats, each adorned with garlands and holding seated figures or deity murtis in colourful garments. A central golden peetha throne holds a seated figure in purple robes with a rudraksha-style mala and a sacred staff, flanked by gilded lion and peacock motifs. Behind, a backdrop shows a stone-temple style painting with partial lettering. Two performance lights sit on the floor, and two people are partially visible in the foreground at the bottom edge.
