A stage at an evening event under a draped tent, lit with golden and green light and filled with low smoke. A large golden relief of a multi-armed deity murti, holding a trident and other implements, stands in the backdrop. In front of it, a figure in a black hat, a red-and-white garment and a beaded necklace stands on the stage, with an illuminated trident-shaped pillar on each side and golden foliage hanging above. A camera on a tripod is in the foreground. The person's appearance is consistent with the presentation described in the page, but the evidence is not conclusive enough to identify him.

Behind the stage hangs a large golden-toned sculpted deity murti with multiple arms holding objects, a crown-like headdress and a rudraksha-style necklace. In front of it stands a single standing figure wearing a black cap-like headpiece, a long beaded mala and ceremonial gold necklace, and a patterned sequined-looking garment, holding a silver trishul upright in one hand. Potted green plants frame the stage and a camera is visible at the bottom edge.

Green-lit potted plants flank the stage and a red carpet runs along the platform. Thick yellowish smoke billows across the front as a figure in black head covering and a silver trishul held upright emerges from behind the panel. A camera on a tripod sits in the foreground. Only a partially visible person is present, and the deity panel is a depiction, not a living figure.2016-05-04
