A man stands centre stage under bright green spotlights in front of a glowing grid of lights. He wears a leopard-print blouse and a rust-red and orange draped dhoti with a leopard-print sash, plus bangles and a dark rudraksha-style necklace. His hair is tied up in a high topknot with a small ornament. He holds a tall silver trident decorated with a leopard-print cloth and a small drum-like ornament near its head. Rows of brass oil lamps line the front of the stage. The page identifies this as a person event, but the figure's appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the role is given as a performer in costume on stage.
