A seated figure in an orange-brown robe and an orange turban sits on the throne, with a small kalasha-like finial above. Around the stage, a line of around fifteen young men in orange shawls and athletic clothes stand, some holding papers, with a woman in a maroon sari and a man in a red shirt near the throne. A trident stands at the left of the throne. The setting appears to be an indoor yoga hall with brass railings on the stage edge.
