Devotees sit on the floor in an indoor hall facing a stage, many in orange and white clothing, with some seated on red chairs at the right. On the stage, a seated figure in orange robes and a red-and-gold headpiece sits on an ornate white throne, with a camera on a tripod nearby. Behind the stage, a large backdrop shows a glowing temple tower with a mountain under a starry sky. Flanking the backdrop are decorated deity murti with garlands, one in red and gold, and a yellow-and-white figure on the left. Yellow ceremonial poles stand at the left edge. The seated figure on the throne has a distinctive crown-like headpiece and orange robes, but appearance-based identification is uncertain, so the role is given as a seated speaker.
