Photograph of an empty stage under a white tent, set with gold-finished ornate thrones and carved gold arches draped in red cloth. Two seated figures on the thrones are small and distant, wearing flower garlands in multicolour and ornate ceremonial dress, but they appear to be statues or deity murti rather than live people. Foreground shows the back of a flat-screen TV on a equipment case, a camera crane arm at upper left, and a brass oil lamp (diya) on the right.
