The backdrop painting shows a riverside city of stone ghats and temple spires in grey and orange tones. Red velvet curtains frame the stage, with brass oil lamps (diyas) lined along the edge, potted plants, a brass lamp stand and a trident-topped staff beside the throne. In the foreground lower right, a person in orange clothing sits at a table with a laptop. Gold-carved pillars and hanging bells complete the setting.
