A photograph of an ornate temple-like stage framed by two tall golden-orange sculptures of muscular guardian figures with multiple arms and crowns. A standing man in the centre wears a rust-brown dhoti and a matching sash over the shoulder, with layered rudraksha malas and a gold necklace. He holds a silver trident in one hand, and a black crown-like headpiece sits on his head. Behind him hang brass bells and bead strands, with a gold throne-like seat and two golden lion figures at the base. Warm orange lighting fills the scene.
