A dimly lit stage in a large hall, with spotlights from above picking out a seated figure in a red, ornate costume and a tall crown-like headdress, sitting before a dark backdrop with a large tree-like cutout and a tall silver trident leaning beside them. A purple light glows behind the tree. Stage railings and a small fan are visible at the sides, and the foreground shows the dark edge of the audience area with a few small monitor screens. The figure is shown as a stage depiction of Shiva-like iconography rather than a clearly identified person.

A dimly lit indoor stage with a dark backdrop and a leafy tree silhouette lit in purple. A single seated figure in red and gold ceremonial attire, with an ornate headdress, sits centrally beside a tall trident (trishula) standing upright. Spotlights from above create beams across the scene, and a metal bench sits at the front of the stage. A floor fan and wall-mounted unit appear at the sides. The figure is too small and indistinct to confirm identity, so no specific identification is made.2016-03-07A dimly lit stage in a hall, with spotlights and haze beams falling on a seated figure beneath a large artificial leafy tree. The seated person wears a dark rounded headpiece, a red-maroon garment and ornamented gold-toned jewellery, and sits on a decorated throne-like seat beside a tall silver trident.

Above him hangs a large backdrop of dense green foliage, lit with blue and violet light, with shafts of light falling from above through haze. The figure may be a statue or a costumed performer; the stillness and the stage set suggest a tableau or a deity murti display rather than a live crowd. The setting appears to be a Mahashivaratri stage tableau at a KAILASA event.2016-03-07A dimly lit stage at night with blue and violet lighting beneath a large leafy tree backdrop.

The figure wears a dark cap or crown with crescent-moon ornaments, a red-maroon garment with a gold-patterned panel, a gold necklace and armlets, and sits on a draped cloth seat. A silver trident stands upright to the left, and a small bottle sits near the base.
