A musical performance on a stage draped with blue satin, in front of a large red banner reading "Ānandotsava Ānandeśvara Devālaya Brahmotsava 2010" with a smiling portrait labelled in the banner's artwork of a man in an orange turban and orange shawl. On stage, a musician in a red shirt with raised hand sings into a microphone, flanked by players of a tabla-style drum, a harmonium/keyboard, a guitar, a stringed instrument, and a woman in a green sari. Men in blue and white kurtas play instruments, and a drum kit stands at the back. A seated audience of young people, many with long dark hair, faces the stage in the foreground. A small framed portrait of a woman with a red mark hangs on the right side of the backdrop.
