A large crowd of devotees, mostly seen from behind, raises phones to film a stage lit by spotlights and framed by red velvet curtains. On an ornate carved throne at centre stage sits a figure in saffron-orange robes, seated in meditative posture beneath a carved canopy, flanked by tall carved stone-style pillars. Devotees in white kurtas, orange and green salwar-kameez and saffron saris stand and sit in the foreground, many with hands raised holding mobile phones. Stage lighting and a decorated tent ceiling with hanging lanterns surround the scene.
