Wide photo from the back of a hall where a seated audience in white and pastel clothes faces a raised golden throne-like seat at the far end. A tall figure in orange and red clothing sits on the throne, with a large backdrop behind him showing a painted portrait and Tamil script. Hanging decorative fabric panels with bird motifs and tassels line the ceiling, and brass lamps stand beside the stage. Many people sit cross-legged on the floor, some in white dhotis and others in maroon and blue shirts, with a woman in a lavender saree at right.
