A seated bearded man in a rust-red and saffron-toned robe sits on a white-cushioned throne on a stage before a deep red curtain. He wears a long multi-strand flower garland, a gold necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, and raises his right hand in a blessing gesture. Behind him a gilded arched frame holds a golden deity murti of a seated goddess with a child figure. Foliage and a green backlight decorate the arch. Brass-rimmed earthenware pots with potted plants line the stage, a brass lamp stand and a trident stand flank the throne, and a microphone stands in front. Striped decorative banners hang on wooden poles. The stage has a floral textile underlay and a ceiling of track lights.
