A stage with a blue backdrop and red curtains is decorated for a children's event. A large banner shows a smiling woman with a red bindi and a rainbow above the words "KIDS DAY" and balloons. Below it, a small framed portrait sits on a throne-like altar draped with orange and yellow marigold garlands and topped with a gold crown. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, and potted palms frame the red-carpeted steps. About nine young boys in white kurtas and dhotis, several with red sashes, stand on the stage with hands folded. Two young boys stand near the altar, and a few others stand at the left edge. The scene is a photograph of a children's ceremony.
