A photograph of a decorated indoor stage set for a ceremony, lit with purple and red lights. Two ornate arched pillars in terracotta and pink frame the stage, and a red-roofed canopy with white drapes hangs above a golden throne-like seat at the centre holding a deity murti or seated figure adorned with flower garlands. Yellow marigold garlands drape the stage edge over white flower arrangements. Several seated devotees in the foreground, including a woman in white and a woman with grey hair, some raising phones to photograph the stage. The seated central figure is a statue or decorated murti rather than a clearly visible living person.
