A crowd of devotees in white and orange clothing stands with raised arms in a hall before a golden Nataraja-style dancing deity murti backdrop, with cream draped curtains. A seated figure in orange robes and a dark head covering sits on a throne-like chair in the centre; the figure's identity is uncertain from appearance, so the seated figure is described by role only. Two standing deity murti in colourful garlanded silk attire flank the right side, and ornate brass lamp stands and a ceremonial staff are visible. In the foreground, several people hold arms up in energetic participation, with a video camera on a tripod at left.
