A stage at a temple-style hall with dark red drapes and a golden gilded throne-backdrop. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes, with a red turban, a yellow beaded mala and a gold necklace, sits centrally before a silver framed picture. Two young attendants in orange dhotis, one bare-chested, stand at left making an offering. Flanking the stage are gilded arches with garlands of yellow and red flowers, deity murti at right in a blue and gold figure with a crown, and a golden bull-shaped throne piece in the centre. Brass oil lamps are lit at the front of the platform, and a microphone stand stands in the middle.
