A man stands alone on a green-lit stage with eyes closed, dressed as a Shiva-style ascetic. He wears a rust-red draped dhoti with gold border, a tiger-print leopard-skin-patterned bodice across the chest and a matching wrap over the shoulder, rudraksha bracelets on both arms and a gold chain at the neck. His long matted locks are pinned up with an ornament and he has a sacred mark on the forehead. In his right hand he holds a silver trident wrapped with a leopard-print cloth, its tassels hanging down. Behind him a large screen shows a red-and-white pattern, and brass oil lamps stand at the left edge of the stage.
