Photo from behind a large seated audience of mostly women in white and cream clothes, some with orange or red shawls, facing an ornate stage with gold-and-red throne canopies. On the central dais a man in orange and saffron robes with a red turban sits on a gilded throne before a lit oil lamp and a small brass vessel. Flanking him are seated figures on a blue-draped seat and a red seat, and to the right a deity murti with a tall crown and garlands stands in a shrine niche. A cameraman with a tripod films from the left and a white-clad attendant works at the right edge of the stage. Red curtains and striped pennants frame the hall.
