A seated man on a gold and red heart-shaped throne, wearing a cream turban, a red robe with a gold shawl, and a red tilak mark, receives an honouring gesture. Two devotees kneel before him: an older man in a cream and gold plaid shirt and white dhoti cups the seated man's face with both hands, and a woman in a white sari with a gold border touches his cheek. A flower-garlanded golden umbrella canopy, marigold and jasmine garlands, and a golden deity murti stand behind the throne. To the left, a seated man in orange robes wears a gold necklace, and another orange-robed attendant stands at right. The setting is a stage with a dark drape backdrop.
