A photograph of a stage performance during an Ānandotsava event at the Ānandeśvara Devālaya Brahmotsava. Six female dancers in Bharatanatyam-style costumes stand in a line on a green-covered stage, arms extended to the sides in a synchronized pose. Their saris and costumes are in teal, magenta, gold and green, with gold borders, jewelled necklaces and white flowers in their hair. Behind them a large red banner reads Ānandotsava and Ānandeśvara Devālaya Brahmotsava, with the number 2009 partly visible. Potted ferns and white flowers decorate the stage edge, and musicians sit at the right, with a seated audience in the foreground.
