Photograph of an indoor stage with dark red velvet curtains drawn to the sides and a red carpet. On the raised golden throne platform stands a large painted statue of a figure in red and gold garments with a red mala, flanked by two colourful painted statues of attendant figures with raised arms. Behind them is a blue and gold painted backdrop with decorative columns. Two people in orange robes sit at the left edge near a clear lectern, and a white ceiling fan and a few heads are visible at the bottom edge.
