A statue-like figure seated in a flower-decorated palanquin or throne, framed by thick garlands of red roses, white jasmine and marigolds with purple accents. The figure wears a black crown with a crescent moon and jewelled ornaments, a pink and red silk garment with heavy silver-toned embroidery, and a large ornate necklace. One hand holds a ceremonial trident-like staff and the other rests on a small object. The figure's face is painted and the image is a photograph of a decorated murti or effigy rather than a living person, against a dark blue stage backdrop.
