A stage with a dark navy backdrop shows an ornate golden throne draped with red and gold cushions and a multicoloured canopy. Seated on the throne is a figure in blue garments with a long beaded necklace, in a meditative cross-legged posture, and a microphone stands beside it. The seated figure is a statue or mannequin, not a living person. To the left stands a golden shrine-like pedestal decorated with yellow and purple marigold garlands, holding a blue-robed deity murti with an upright posture. Orange and purple cloth covers the stage floor. The scene shows no living people.
