A stage performance at a Dhasara 2010 event: four female dancers in traditional South Indian dance costumes sit cross-legged on a white-draped stage in namaste poses with eyes closed. From left, one wears purple and green with gold jewellery, one wears purple and green with a gold belt, one wears green and magenta, and the rightmost wears magenta and green with a gold waist belt; all have flowers in their hair. A backdrop shows an orange-and-yellow banner with a temple silhouette and the title Dhasara 2010. Blurred heads of seated audience members fill the foreground, and a small circular inset in the top-left corner shows a smiling person in orange clothing.
