A performer dressed as Shiva stands in front of a large projected backdrop of snowy Himalayan mountain peaks. He holds a tall trident with a drum (damaru) hanging from it and wears a crescent moon ornament in his hair, dark rudraksha beads, bracelets and a leopard-print wrap. His hand rests on his hip and his figure is mostly in silhouette against the bright blue and white screen.
