A silhouetted seated figure sits cross-legged on an ornately carved wooden throne with lion-head armrests on a dark stage. Purple and blue stage lights glow behind, with a projected backdrop of multiple deity murti faces stacked in a pyramid shape, including figures with crowns and trident-like forms. The figure's back is turned to the camera, and the figure is a single person on the throne, appearing as a silhouette with long hair pulled back. Small lights glow beneath the throne and a faint red light appears at left.
