A man stands at a clear acrylic lectern speaking into a handheld microphone, wearing an orange-red shirt over white dhoti with gold border and a rudraksha mala. Behind him a golden carved wall with elephant motifs frames a stage with a large tree trunk, brass lamps, a golden kalasha-like figure holding a bowl, a brass trident, and potted plants. On the right stands a large golden throne with a cobra-hood backrest and tiger-skin cushion, with a life-size cutout of a seated man in orange robes and turban, wearing garlands and a gold necklace, placed on the throne. The cutout is a printed depiction, not a physical presence. Red curtains hang behind the stage.
