A standing figure in a rust-red and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl, wearing a matching red turban with a yellow flower, long white beaded mala and garland of red, yellow and white flowers, smiles and raises one hand in greeting beside a gilded Ganesha murti. The four-armed Ganesha stands on a golden pedestal with an orange cloth canopy, backed by an arch of yellow, red and green flower garlands. To the right, a gilded animal figure and another deity murti with spears stand on a pink-draped platform, and a blue cloth covers the base. A red velvet curtain hangs behind the stage.
