A photograph from a stage performance shows a person seen from behind, with very long dark braided hair falling to the waist, wearing a red top with bangles on the arms and red trousers. The figure holds a golden trident in one hand and rests the other on the hip, standing before a large golden relief of a multi-armed deity with a crown, and a bearded figure with raised hands is carved beside. Two golden lion figures flank a dark velvet platform, and pink-lit smoke drifts across the lower right corner.

They wear brown-orange garments and gold bangles on the arms. In front of them a large golden relief of a multi-armed deity murti with a necklace and raised hands fills the wall, bathed in warm orange light with golden foliage at the upper left.
