Five women in matching rust-red and gold-bordered dance costumes perform on a red-carpeted stage. Four stand in a row with palms pressed together in anjali, a fifth kneels at right, and a sixth woman in a white sari sits at the far right near a table. Each dancer wears a beaded necklace, flowers in her hair and bangles. Behind them a backdrop shows a carved stone temple relief, and a man in a yellow shirt and a woman in a red outfit sit in the background. Red curtains hang at the back and wall-mounted air conditioners are visible.
