A stage event with a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a carved lion-form armrest and red cushions, wearing a red-brown robe and a red head wrap. Standing around the throne are a man in white kurta-style clothing with a grey shoulder bag, a woman in a pale saree with a red border, a bare-chested man in a brown dhoti-style garment, and a man in orange-saffron wrap cloth facing the throne. Marigold-type orange flowers in pots and a flower arrangement sit beside the stage, which has a red-and-gold patterned cloth. A red banner reading Awakening is behind the stage, and a camera is at the right edge. Two seated people are at the bottom edge of the frame. The seated figure in red may be a person, based on the ornate throne and red-brown robe, though the head wrap and seated pose give only limited cues.
