A photograph of a stage at night during a celebration. A man in a white dhoti and white shirt with a white head covering sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with an umbrella-like canopy decorated with yellow and orange garlands. He holds a stick-like object across his lap. Flower petals scatter the stage floor and steps. Behind the throne hangs a dark curtain, with black plaques with white and gold printing on white-draped tables on either side, and flower arrangements nearby.
