A staged performance on a dark stage with orange flame backdrop and smoke. A man with long dark hair, a red tilak on his forehead and a leopard-print wrap over bare chest stands before a large golden ring, holding a trident-topped staff in one hand and resting the other hand on his hip. Beside him stand a trident, a curved sickle-like blade, a black tufted staff and a brass-topped rod. Wearing dark red trousers and ornate ankle shoes, he is a person depiction of the Kalabhairava-themed darshan. Theatrical lights glow at the edges.
