Large seated audience of women in white saris fills a hall facing a stage. On the stage, a golden throne with a seated figure in orange garments sits before a painted backdrop of a tree and deities, with Tamil banner text reading ஆதி சைவம். Several camera operators on tripods film the stage, and a screen at left shows a figure in red turban and orange robes. The audience is mostly seated on the floor, many with hair in braids, and gold ornamental statues flank the stage.
