A seated man in an orange-saffron kurta and dhoti with a gold chain necklace and a white-and-red vibhuti mark on his forehead sits on an ornate gold throne carved with lions, its armrests draped with white and orange jasmine garlands and a red velvet cushion. Above him hangs a gold umbrella, and the throne is backed by a tall gold carved arch wrapped in yellow, red and purple flower garlands. Fresh pink gerbera, orange flowers and green foliage decorate the platform, with a brass offering tray and a small pot on a white side table. A blue drape and red brick wall form the backdrop of this temple-style stage at the Brahmotsava celebration.
