Two women perform a dance in a richly decorated temple hall lined with ornate gold and silver deity shrines, lamp stands and a silver-framed arch. The woman on the left wears a white sari with orange and red-striped border, a rudraksha-style bead necklace and bangles, her arms extended outward as she steps forward. The woman on the right, in a cream sari with a patterned border and teal skirt beneath, raises both arms overhead and lifts one leg in a balanced pose. Behind them are deity murtis with crowns and garlands, and a row of hanging colourful prayer flags runs along the top. Low silver-covered platforms and a red carpet sit in the foreground.2015-09-10September 10 20152015-09-10September 10 20152015-09-10 +1 copiesSeptember 10 20152015-09-10 +1 copiesSeptember 10 20152015-09-10September 10 20152015-09-10September 10 20152015-09-10September 10 20152015-09-10Photograph of an evening stage performance before an ornate gold-and-silver backdrop with deity murtis, including a seated four-armed figure with a trident and another deity form.

Two standing women in sarees perform a dance: one in a cream and beige saree with arms raised and hands together overhead, the other in an orange-bordered white saree with arms extended outward. A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe and beaded rudraksha mala sits on a gold throne at left, with a red head covering, hands held together in front. Behind them are large deity murtis with a trident and gold jewelled adornments, and a gold-framed seat draped in teal. Gold and silver kalasha-like ornaments and striped bunting decorate the set. The seated figure's face is not clearly visible enough to confirm identity from appearance.2015-09-10
