A man in an orange-saffron robe with a matching shawl and a pink flower garland sits on the throne, appearing to be the central figure being honoured. Around him, a man in a red-and-white checked shirt and brown lungi touches the throne, a younger man in white dhoti with an orange shawl stands at left, and two women in a light green salwar and in a green-and-red sari bring flowers and offerings. The backdrop is a pink-toned painted banyan-tree scene with hanging roots, and a red-and-white stage floor.
