Ornate gold-carved panels with elephant reliefs flank the stage, with gold elephant figurines, potted green plants and a microphone stand nearby, and a red curtain with a silver tree backdrop behind. Below, a seated audience of mostly bare-chested men in orange and white cloth, with rudraksha malas, raise hands and listen, some holding phones.
