A staged drama on a temple-style stage with painted deity murti behind the performers. Four young performers in saffron and orange robes with rudraksha malas stand and sit: one seated on a chair in orange with a bare upper body holding a small object, one seated on the floor in red robes with a pot and offering, and two standing in orange, one of them touching a bowl. A woman in a red blouse and pink-and-green saree stands at left holding a steel cup. The ornate painted murti at left shows a multi-armed figure holding a trident and other weapons, and a monkey-like figure stands at lower left. The floor is glossy white tile.
