Indoor stage decorated with a wall of colourful balloons in pink, yellow, green, blue and orange behind a dark blue curtain. At centre sits a seated figure on an ornate golden throne with a red cushion and a gold canopy, flanked by flower arrangements; the figure is a statue or effigy rather than a living person, and no face is identifiable as a specific individual. In front, a line of children in white, saffron and orange dhotis and kurtas stand with palms joined toward the throne on the left, while girls in colourful salwar kameez and half-saris stand on the right. Several seated devotees in orange and white clothes sit on the floor in the foreground, their backs to the camera, with petals scattered on the white floor.
