On the stage three performers sit: a woman in white playing a stringed instrument, a woman playing a tanpura-style instrument at centre, and a woman seated beside a row of terracotta pots. Behind them a large orange banner shows a circular portrait of a smiling figure in orange and a printed title reading Dhasara 2010, with dance silhouettes and temple towers. A flat-screen TV at right shows a figure seated on an ornate throne in blue.
