A large indoor hall labelled MUTHIAH MANDRAM above a stage decorated with pink, purple, green and white draped cloth, marigold garlands and a golden lion-shaped throne in the centre. Several people in white dhotis and kurtas, and saffron-robed attendants, stand and move on the stage and on a red carpet running down the aisle. A row of audience members in white, pastel and saffron sits on the floor facing the stage. A video camera on a tripod stands at the carpet's edge and a projection screen hangs at the left. The scene suggests a ceremonial gathering, with no clearly identifiable figure seated on the throne.
