Stage performance against a red backdrop with large dark lettering and a partially legible banner. A performer in white hair, white forehead markings, an orange shawl, a rudraksha mala and a gold-and-orange saree is raising one finger while facing a young girl in a gold-patterned blue blouse, red dhoti-style trousers and a rudraksha mala. The girl stands with one hand on her hip. Potted ferns sit at the edge of the green stage. The performer's appearance matches the page's a person claim only partially: the costume and rudraksha are present, but the figure is acting a role in a drama. Treated as a performer in costume, with identity uncertain.

December 30 20092009-12-30A performer on a green stage stands in a dramatic pose, wearing an orange shawl over a golden-yellow sari with metallic trim, a dark rudraksha mala around the neck, and a white forehead mark. Her pale blonde wig and wide-eyed expression suggest a comic or theatrical character. She raises one hand toward her chest while the other extends outward. Behind her, a red banner reads Janmotsavam 2010, with potted ferns at the edge of the stage. Her role appears to be a stage performance rather than a ritual. The shawl, sari and mala are the most distinctive costume elements.2009-12-30December 30 20092009-12-30Stage performance photograph with a red and magenta backdrop bearing large partial lettering.
