A stage performance in a hall with blue curtains and orange-and-red draped valances. On a raised white platform, a seated figure in an ornate dark throne-like chair is attended by several people in white garments with yellow shawls. One standing person in white leans toward the seated figure, while others in white stand around them. Two women in white saris with gold borders stand at the right. Several men in white kurtas with yellow shawls stand at the left on the stage. In the foreground, empty black chairs and a folded striped cloth sit on the floor, with a video camera on a tripod. The seated figure is a throne occupant rather than a clearly identifiable individual, so no identification is made.

Photograph of an indoor stage with a white raised platform, blue curtain backdrop and white-and-red draped stage canopy. Several people in white clothing with yellow and orange-red shawls gather around a cream armchair at centre stage, with a woman in a white sari with orange border among them. A man at right foreground in white with yellow shawl gestures toward the stage; a man at left in white robes gestures, and a figure in white sari with a red book stands at left. Bottles of water sit on the front edge of the stage. No one is clearly identifiable as a person by visible cues in this frame, so the figure is unsure.2010-07-11July 11 20102010-07-11A stage set with a pale cream upholstered armchair with dark carved wooden trim, draped in pink fabric, in front of a deep blue curtain.

An empty ornate beige throne with dark carved wooden arms and round cushions stands at centre. Around it, about eight young people in white dhotis and white kurtas or sarees, many wearing yellow scarves, move about or stand on the grey stage. A woman in a white saree with a pink and orange shawl stands by the throne, another in white reaches out, and a man in the right foreground kneels at the stage edge looking upward with his arms outstretched, wearing a white kurta, yellow scarf and a crossbody bag. No one on stage is identifiable as the a person candidate with confidence.2010-07-11A cultural programme in a white-walled hall with a dark red curtain stage at the back.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a white throne-like seat with circular accents.
