The seated person wears orange robes and a red-orange shawl, with a large garland of white flowers around the neck, and holds one hand raised. Around them, about two dozen people stand in rows in white kurtas and dhotis or white saris, many wearing orange shawls, some with rudraksha or bead necklaces. A low red and cream patterned platform, a silver bowl with fruit and flower-strewn steps sit in front. Behind them hangs a large backdrop with a printed face, and ceremonial garlands decorate the sides. White plastic chairs frame the right and left edges of the stage.
