A photograph of a stage event. A man in a white kurta stands at left holding papers and reading or presenting from them. Seated at right on a red throne-like chair draped with white and yellow garlands is a long-haired figure in a dark embroidered top with a microphone in front of them, smiling. Garlands of white and orange flowers hang around the chair and a decorated canopy. Behind them is a white backdrop printed with rows of small painted standing figures on blue pedestals, and a pink silk cloth is draped in the centre. Red and maroon curtains frame the left side. A partially visible seated man sits near the bottom centre. The a person cues are the long swept-back hair, dark ornate top and throne-seat, but the face is not visible enough to confirm identity, so identity is uncertain.
