A stage set for a Krishna event: a deity murti of Krishna with a flute, garlanded with white, red and yellow flower strands, stands under a golden multi-headed serpent hood on a gold-tiered pedestal. To the right, a seated performer in a yellow dhoti and yellow head-wrap, with a flute in hand and a red-and-yellow flower garland, sits on a gold throne with peacock-feather motifs. Several food offerings in bowls sit on the floor mat in front, and microphones stand before the deity. Red and purple drapes and peacock feathers decorate the background.
